Summary:

Aurangabad: The waste dump at Padegaon caught fire again on Saturday and the fire brigade was called in for help.

However, the fire was so widespread that it couldn’t be completely controlled until Sunday evening.In a third major incident in the last three months, around 20,000 to 30,000 tonne of waste dumped at Padegaon caught fire causing huge smoke and ash..
