Delhi residents choke on landfill fire fumes

STORY: Large plumes of smoke continued to rise from the burning landfill in the city’s eastern district, where excavators were seen removing piles of garbage to deescalate the fire on Sunday (April 21) night.

New Delhi mayor Shelly Oberoi on Monday told media that “there is nothing to be scared of” and that the smoke will be resolved in “four to five hours more”.
