Know more about India's Mountain of Trash
India's tallest rubbish mountain in New Delhi is on course to rise higher than the Taj Mahal
It is already more than 65 metres (213 feet) high as per data shared by East Delhi's superintendent engineer Arun Kumar in 2020
Taking up the area of more than 40 football pitches, Ghazipur rises by nearly 10 metres a year with no end in sight to its foul-smelling growth.
India's Supreme Court warned in 2019 that red warning lights will soon have to be put on the dump to alert passing jets.
“About 2,000 tonnes of garbage is dumped at Ghazipur each day,” a Delhi municipal official said in 2019
In 2018, a section of the hill collapsed in heavy rains killing two people
Fires, sparked by methane gas coming from the dump, regularly break out and take days to extinguish
