Jharia is source of high quality coal in India, an important ingredient of India’s growth story.
Jharia is sitting atop a veritable tinderbox; fires have erupted in Jharkhand's underground coalfields for a century. ... The fire in the underground mines was identified in the early 1970s after the nationalisation of BCCL.
Jharia, situated in the Dhanbad district, is one of Jharkhand’s largest towns. Lying within one of India’s largest coal reserves, the Jharia coal field has been burning uninhibitedly for over 100 years. The town and nearby villages sit on top of an active volcano, awaiting an uncertain future.
The ground is so hot at places, that walking even in shoes is near impossible. Almost everyone here is ill. Authorities ask the villagers to leave their homes and go
