Banned firecrackers sold across Delhi markets
Illegal sales of firecrackers are thriving in Delhi ahead of Diwali, despite a blanket ban on their sale, manufacture, storage, and use. Traders in markets across the city openly sell firecrackers and do little to keep their illicit business under wraps. The illegal sales and lack of enforcement have raised concerns over pollution levels in the city, as toxic fumes from firecrackers add to already high levels of pollution. The Delhi Police have seized over 10,000 kg of firecrackers between 16 October and 8 November. | Latest News Delhi
