Residents complain that smoke from the plant has added to the pollution
A fire broke out in the Chikkanagamangala waste processing plant two days ago and has not been completely put out yet. The smoke from the plant has only added to the pollution and made the life of residents difficult. “The entire area is filled with smoke. How can the elderly and those with respiratory issues live? Children have been playing in the open and are getting affected,” said D. Chandran, a resident of the area. This is not the first time a fire has broken out inside the plant. A major fire had gutted parts of the plant in 2016.More Related News
