People incited to burst crackers, claims AAP; BJP says fireworks not to blame for poor air
Delhi's environment minister, Gopal Rai, has blamed the increase in pollution levels on the bursting of firecrackers during Diwali celebrations. He alleged that firecrackers were supplied from neighboring states in violation of a Supreme Court order. Rai warned that if pollution levels reach the severe plus category, the government will consider implementing the odd-even scheme to reduce vehicle emissions. The Delhi government has also launched an anti-open burning campaign and an anti-dust campaign to tackle pollution in the city.
