Jamshedpur crematoriums reach full capacity Vacant spaces being utilised on premises, bodies coming in at four times the usual count
The steel city’s burning ghats are witnessing a manifold increase in bodies arriving for cremations in the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Over 40 bodies are being cremated at Subarnarekha Ghat in Bhuiyandih and Parvati Ghat in Jugsalai respectively.
In pre-Covid times, 10-12 bodies came for cremation daily at Subarnarekha ghat while the figure was 8-10 daily at Parvati ghat.
The increased number of cremations at both the crematoriums has put pressure on the management committee of these facilities. Moreover, people coming for the last rites have to wait for long to complete the formalities.
