Haryana bans firecrackers in 14 districts near Delhi ahead of Diwali

Haryana has banned the sale and use of firecrackers in 14 districts near Delhi days before the big festival of Diwali.

As per a NDTV report, even online shopping sites are not allowed to sell and deliver firecrackers to these areas.

While issuing the order, the state government noted that bursting crackers can adversely affect the respiratory health of vulnerable groups, besides aggravating health condition of Covid-19 positive people in home isolation.

However, green crackers are permitted for marriages and other occasions.

Notably, the Haryana govt took similar measures before Diwali last year as well.
