10 LAKH (1 MILLION) TONNE COAL BURNT IN KPT


Times of India reported that, In an unusual phenomenon, 10 lakh tonne coal cache stored at a plot in Kandla Port Trust was reduced to ashes after it caught fire due to 
heat concentration effect caused by sun rays on Saturday.

"The fire was the result of sun rays beaming through a particular angle which had a heat magnifying effect on the coal," said a KPT official.

Meanwhile, KPT officials launched a damage control operation. However, piles of logs placed beside the coal cache became the major hindrance for the operation. "We're trying our best to control the fire lest it spread towards the logs. We've also been successful in salvaging a major chunk of coals," the official described.

The coal supply had come to the port through shipments from China, Indonesia and South Africa. Laying the coal supply out in the open seems to have become an age-old practice at KPT. It may be noted that large cache of lakhs of tonnes of coal is stored in similar fashion at Mundra, Porbandar and Navlakhi ports.
