minister Gopal said that online sales and distribution of crackers will be banned this time like last time. The environment
minister said that this restriction will be effective till
january 1, 2023, and an action plan will be drawn up with
delhi Police,
delhi pollution Control Board, and Revenue Department to implement it.
people were disappointed as the restriction was extended to online sales and distribution of firecrackers in Delhi. Due to the increase in
air pollution in
delhi, the bursting of firecrackers has been banned this year to protect the environment and consider the
health of the people.
Usually, festivals in northern states are celebrated critically. That too
diwali festival, Vinayagar Chaturthi, and many other festivals are celebrated with crackers bursting. In this situation, as the
festival of
diwali is coming next month, due to the increase in
air pollution in
delhi, a ban on the bursting of firecrackers has been issued.
Despite a ban on firecrackers in the past two years,
pollution levels in the
capital delhi continued to be poor in the week after Diwali. The
delhi government has imposed a complete ban on the sale and bursting of firecrackers in the
capital city of Delhi. The city
government has also launched the 'Badake Nahi Diye Jalao' campaign to create awareness against the bursting of firecrackers.
The
delhi government has also advised that action will be taken against those who burn firecrackers under the relevant
indian Penal Code and the Explosives Act. Mainly this announcement has come as a shock to the crackers manufacturers and youth. While many
people are already suffering from diseases due to
air pollution, now children to adults are suffering from respiratory problems and allergies. Following this, many measures are being taken to improve the
air quality in Delhi. According to the
pollution Control Board, the concentration of PM 2.5 in the
air is higher than that set by the World
health Organization. As the
diwali festival is going to be celebrated on the 24th of next month, this announcement of the
government has caused dissatisfaction among firecracker sellers. And
people are worried that this year's
diwali festival will be wasted without crackers.
