Despite ban, 18 per cent Delhi-NCR families plan to burst crackers this Diwali: Survey

An 18% minority in Delhi-NCR plans to burst firecrackers during Diwali, according to a LocalCircles survey with 10,526 participants. Despite a ban on firecrackers, many still intend to use them, as seen previously during Karva Chauth. Poor air quality persists, raising concerns about the effectiveness of the ban and its enforcement.
