Hoshiarpur (The Stellar News) Saksham Kalia: One of the biggest festivals in India is to be celebrated today and the criticism over bursting firecrackers has started extensively. It’s been while that the festival of lighting is being celebrated in India without counting advantages and disadvantages of the rituals and the ways Diwali is being celebrated in India.
As on Diwali, people bursts crackers, enlighten Diyas and decorate their houses with flowers and lights to mark and welcome the embodiment of chivalry and virtue, God Shri Ram Chandra Ji to his hometown Ayodhya after spending 14 years in forest.
Every time few days before the day of Diwali, Government and many environmentalists starts appealing not to burst crackers. But the question is why always Diwali, crackers are made in large numbers by manufacturers and are sold in huge numbers, bursts on marriages, birthdays and many special occasions.
Few years back, when we were children, use to wait for Diwali so that we can burst crackers. But present generation is missing that joy, just because of politics and bad management that is not letting them to burst crackers.
Every time in Diwali, everyone questions that, Why administration not take action against the manufacturers who made such pollution causing crackers rather than making green crackers?
Why always these measures are taken on Diwali, not on other festivals? Why they don’t take action against the sellers? Why always such formality of issuing a notice and not doing anything on ground level?
Question should also be asked to the health Department, that in entire year there is rare checking on shops but at the time a lot of restrictions are implemented on shop owners rather than keeping an eye from where are they getting such impure substances and how are they easily getting such products.
At the end the point is that, Government should take some decisions that will actually help on ground level rather than issuing advisories and notices.
