Thane (Maharashtra) : Bursting crackers with pictures of Deities cause their desecration; the firework causes air and noise pollution. Crackers can also set things on fire and cause destruction of property worth billions of rupees. In the present times of high inflation, firework which results in waste of money and pollution, should be avoided, was the appeal made by Mr. Ajay Sambhus of HJS in a press conference held here.
Mrs. Vaishali Kothmire of Sanatan Sanstha explained that celebration of Diwali, with spiritual perspective, is more beneficial.
