Odisha: Air Pollution Risk For Sambalpur Residents As Scrap Dealers Burn Garbage In Open Areas

A Twitter video shared by Rajesh Kumar Meher on February 12 shows clouds of smoke erupting from burning garbage in the Baijamunda chowk area of Sambalpur. Scrap dealers have been burning trash in the open, endangering the health of commuters and polluting the air. Open garbage burning poses health risks to those exposed directly to the smoke, and it mainly affects people with sensitive respiratory systems, children, and the elderly.
