Regarding the increasing air pollution in Delhi, BJP leader and former Union Minister Maneka Gandhi has given a statement on the use of firecrackers which has become a topic of discussion. He said that people who use firecrackers are traitors and he has no other words for this. Along with this, Maneka Gandhi said that when firecrackers are burnt on occasions like Diwali, Dussehra, weddings, New Year and cricket matches, it has a direct impact on people’s health and people start having difficulty even breathing.
Whereas former Union Minister Maneka Gandhi said that stubble burning, number of vehicles and industrial reasons are often held responsible for pollution in the country, but this is not the whole truth. According to Maneka Gandhi, the air of Delhi remains almost clean till three days before Diwali, but from Diwali till New Year, the situation becomes so bad that people are not able to even breathe freely. He raised the question that if firecrackers worth about Rs 800 crore are burnt in Delhi only on the day of Diwali, then it is not difficult to understand what effect it will have on the environment and health.
There is no such thing as green crackers in the world – Maneka Gandhi
Along with this, Maneka Gandhi also raised questions on the claim of green firecrackers. He said that nothing called green crackers exists in the world and it is just a way to confuse people. He said that burning any kind of firecrackers only increases pollution, no matter under what name they are sold.
People are also being affected mentally due to pollution
He also said that due to pollution, people are also being affected mentally and are reaching a state of depression. Unless it rains, it is difficult to get relief from the poisonous air. Maneka Gandhi sarcastically said that it is a strange irony that the people who burn the most firecrackers are the ones who later blame the government and the system the most.
