Stubble burning season starts in Punjab and Haryana -Shagun Kapil

-Down to Earth

Nasa’s satellite image showed at least 100 such incidents in Punjab in the last 72 hours

Nasa satellite images recorded scores of farm fires across Punjab and Haryana in the last seven days, indicating that the stubble burning season has started in the two states.

Several red dots, indicating stubble burning activity, were seen in the images, especially over the districts of Amritsar, Ludhiana and Patiala in Punjab, and Karnal, Kurukshetra and Ambala in Haryana. Some places in neighbouring western Uttar Pradesh also showed the dots.

While the fires intensified till September 25, they seemed to have decreased in the last 48 hours.

In Punjab, the state pollution control department has recorded 100 such incidents in the last two days, mostly from Amritsar and Tarn Taran district.

The crop residue burning incidents are being reported a bit earlier this time as the sowing of the paddy crop was advanced by seven days in June.
