Delhi, the capital of India, has banned the use, sale, and storage of fireworks before the Diwali festival.
This decision aims to protect the city from worsening air pollution. Diwali, celebrated by millions of Hindus, Sikhs, and Jains, is usually marked with bright lamps, fireworks, and festivities that fill the streets and skies.
Air pollution is a long-standing problem in Delhi. Last year, pollution levels were so high that schools had to close. Harmful gases from cars, factories, and other sources make the air dangerous to breathe. Fireworks, though beautiful and exciting, release even more pollutants, which can make the air quality worse during Diwali celebrations.
Gopal Rai, Delhi’s environment minister, said the ban was necessary to protect people’s health. However, some government leaders who disagree with him think the decision is unfair.
This year, people in Delhi will be encouraged to celebrate Diwali by lighting lamps and using other environmentally friendly ways to enjoy the festival.
