Implementing green firecracker rules during Deepavali will be challenging, say activists

The Supreme Court's decision to allow green firecrackers instead of a blanket ban faces implementation hurdles according to The Hindu.

Implementing the Supreme Court's decision to allow green firecrackers for Deepavali will be difficult, according to activists and past experiences, reported The Hindu.

The court lifted a blanket ban on firecrackers, permitting the use of green alternatives instead.

Activists suggest that enforcing these rules will be a challenge. They noted that in previous years, people in the national capital have disregarded both full and partial bans on firecrackers.
