500 quintals mango wood being burned in UP to curb pollution
Nearly 350 Brahmins on Sunday began burning 500 quintals of mango tree wood to curb pollution as part of nine-day 'mahayagya' event organised by the Shri Ayutchandi Mahayagya Samiti in Meerut. The Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board has refused to intervene in the matter on grounds that it is related to a particular religion.
