We are happy that in Hyderabad ,the government has restricted the permission to those who can follow fire safety rules for cracker shops. But the net result is availability of less shops ,but the noise of cracker bursting went on up to 2 am and in prime area like Raj Bhavan Road no police could be found stopping this noise ,the old, infirm, sick , heart patients had to early in the morning to stop in the neighbour hood houses,but of no use. The permission not to play bands , music ,bursting crackers beyond 10pm went for a toss.It was hell as usual . more  
Delhi no cracker ban by NGT should be announced for all India. Localcircles should take up the cause. more  
Lot of people seem to be for the ban . Why allow some who are

insensitive to the environment to burst crackers . more  
It is not the accomplishment of the circle. It is due to the good work of law enforcement agencies & judiciary which laid down the limit. It is gradually reducing since the court's ruling which compelled law enforcing agencies to act tough on the errant people. more  
I do not think the Urban Local bodies have taken any attempt, but Police did and public volunteered due to awareness in the media. more  
The reduction in crackers and the wind flow on the night of diwali did help to reduce the smoke but the dust that it has left behind has made breathing virtually impossible. We need to look at alternatives to crackers and we need to do it within the next 12 months before next diwali. This is killing our children. more
