New Delhi:
The National Green Tribunal has imposed a total ban on sale and use of firecrackers in Delhi and adjoining areas starting midnight of November 9 to November 30.
The ban has been imposed in view of rising air pollution amid a surge of coronavirus cases in the national capital, which recorded 7,745 cases in the last 24 hours.
The order will be applicable to more than 2 dozen districts across four states that are a part of the National Capital Region (NCR).
