People of Punjab might not be able to celebrate Diwali like before as Punjab and Haryana High Court has put restrictions on burning of crackers. They have restricted the duration to just 3 hours i.e. from 6.30 pm to 9.30 pm. This restriction is applicable in Chandigarh, Haryana and Punjab.
Moreover, guidelines were issued for giving temporary license to cracker dealers. This decision was taken after analyzing the air quality in that region; since authorities found it to be deteriorating, they imposed this restriction.
PCR i.e. Pollution Control vans are deployed to keep a check on people there; even Superintendents and Deputy Commissioners will keep a check and see if the orders of the High Court are being respected or not. Permanent licenses cannot be issued to the firecracker sellers without prior permission of the High Court. Even temporary licenses will be granted to limited people.
Here’s how Twitter reacted on this decision;
People will get notice at 9.31!
So at 9:31 everyone burning crackers will get a notice from the courts
