Mumbai(Maharashtra) – Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) has been undertaking a drive for many years to prevent denigration of Deities and great national leaders through the medium of crackers as their pictures are printed on the coverings of crackers. Recently, a representation was submitted to Dr. Shivaji Patil, the District Collector of Mumbai suburban region, demanding to take action against the manufacturers and sellers of crackers with pictures of Sri Lakshmi, Srikrushna, Sri Vishnu etc. and national heroes. The representation was submitted at Bandra office of the District Collector. Dr. Patil assured that necessary action would be taken against those denigrating Deities through the medium of crackers.
