Delhi Cracker Ban: Minister Cites Religion, Says Partial Ban Better Than Total Failure | India Today

This special report focuses on the Supreme Court’s order to partially lift the ban on firecrackers in Delhi, with Delhi’s Environment Minister, Maninder Singh Sirsa, defending the decision. Sirsa argued, ‘Does this rule apply only to my religion? When people of other faiths celebrate their festivals, there is no problem, why are they not banned?’ He claims that a complete ban has been ineffective and has led to a backlash from citizens who feel their religious sentiments are being targeted. While the minister asserts that the government will ensure compliance with the new ‘green cracker’ regulations and time limits, the discussion also highlights significant concerns about the practical challenges of enforcement and the inevitable impact of the decision on the capital’s severe air pollution and public health.
