Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on September 15 announced a complete ban on the sale, usage, and storage of all types of firecrackers in order to curb the pollution on Diwali. Announcing the development, Kejriwal tweeted, ''A complete ban is being imposed...So that people's lives can be saved.'' However, the BJP criticised the decision and said the Delhi government should compensate the traders for their loss.
