Punjab burned 13% less paddy straw this year while Haryana jumped by 16% -Dipu Rai

-India Today

Satellite data shows significant rise in cases of farm fires in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh compared to last year.

Chief ministers of Haryana and Punjab have blamed each other for increasing air pollution in cities in North India and other areas by failing to control stubble burnings cases. But satellite data, gathered and analysed by India Today's data team, DIU, shows that Punjab's farmers have burned 13 per cent less crop residue this year compared to the paddy season last year (Sept to Nov), while Haryana and UP have burned 16 per cent and 23 per cent more paddy straw this year for the same period.

According to NASA's fire alert services, Punjab registered 35,518 burning cases from September to November 7, which is 13.51 per cent lower than last year (41,066) whereas Haryana recorded 16 per cent more such incidents this year in comparison to the 2018 paddy season.
