As the top court on October 9 imposed a ban on sale of Firecrackers in the Delhi-NCR in the run-up of Diwali to check the pollution level, the cracker traders association was filed a reconsideration petition in the Supreme Court regarding the ban on crackers, which will be heard today.
The Supreme Court will on Friday hear traders’ plea, seeking modification of the order banning sale of firecracker till November 1.
A three-judge bench of the apex court had on Monday restored its November 2016 order, banning sale of crackers in NCR and suspended its September 2017 order – which allowed limited sale but banned imports from other states.
