Every summer we see this. Is it accidental or man-made? Tourists need to be more responsible. No throwing cigarette butts!

Visiting Nainital next month. Hope it's contained soon and doesn't affect air quality or travel plans. Fingers crossed.

The Uttarakhand government needs a better, more proactive forest management plan. Reactive firefighting every year is not a solution.

Heartbreaking. The hills are already so fragile. We need more community awareness programs in these areas.
