Eldorado Posted November 7, 2020 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2020 The blaze that started on 9 June, following a gas blowout in Baghjan area, has raged for about 150 days now, making it the longest such fire in India. Three people have died in trying to contain the fire, which initially forced 3,000 people in neighbouring villages to leave their homes and take shelter in makeshift camps. While most of the people have since returned to their homes, scores of families who were living closer to the site of the fire are still in temporary shelters.
