Delhi Air Pollution | Supreme Court Directs UP And Haryana To Impose Complete Ban On Firecrackers Similar To Delhi

Live Law  

The Supreme Court on Thursday directed the states of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to implement complete bans on firecrackers similar to that imposed in Delhi. The Supreme Court today heard the matter concerning air pollution in Delhi-NCR, focusing on the year-round ban on firecrackers, the Graded Response Action Plan, and implementation of the Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016. In its order, the Court noted: “In exercise of powers under Section 5 of the Environment Protection Act, 1993, the Delhi government has enforced a complete ban on the manufacture, storage, selling, including delivery through online marketing platforms, and bursting of all kinds of firecrackers in NCT of Delhi throughout the year with immediate effect.” The bench further stated that such a ban would be effective only if other NCR states imposed similar restrictions. On December 12, the Supreme Court directed the Delhi government and NCR states to decide on a complete year-round ban on firecrackers, including their manufacture, storage, sale, distribution, and use.
