My husband and I bought lots of green crackers. Livelihoods in the town of Sivakasi depend on the fireworks and matches industry, apart from printing. They slog all year for this one day. And govt and courts conveniently ban fireworks just a fortnight before Diwali. It's cruel.
Banning crackers on Diwali is like having an Earth hour to save the environment.

Using this logic. Serum Institute exports to 170 countries. Some estimates say two-thirds of the world's children are inoculated with its vaccines. Why is the world so dependent on one vaccine maker 🤔🙄
