Kolkata: Puja Community Members Destroy Firecrackers To Spread Awareness

After the Calcutta High Court banned the use and sale of firecrackers on Diwali, members of a Kali Puja community in Kolkata on November 12 destroyed firecrackers with water to spread awareness. In addition to Diwali, the court has also decided to restrict 'Chhath' and 'Kartik Puja' celebration to curb pollution. The High Court has warned that those, who flout the rules, would serve a six-month jail term.
