Answer:

The burning sensation on the tongue is caused by chili as it contains a component called as capsaicin, which is responsible for the spicy and burning sensation, it does not cause a chemical burn, it feels like that.

On consuming milk or ghee it stops because they possess casein, which dissolves the capsaicin before it can cause discomfort. Capsaicin is insoluble in water but it is soluble in oils and fats.

Hence, burning sensation caused by chili could be stopped by drinking milk or ghee.
