5 Days On, Fire Still Rages At Kerala Waste Plant

Indian Navy's helicopters, along with fire tenders, on Monday continued their efforts to douse a fire at the Brahmapuram waste plant in Kerala's Kochi. The massive fire started on Thursday with its toxic smoke and foul smell engulfing the nearby areas. "Corporation authority is not caring about our life. We will die of tuberculosis. They could not douse the fire completely even after five days. We are unable to sit here because of the foul smell," said a local.
