Use green crackers only: Delhi CM’s appeal on Diwali

Her appeal on the green crackers comes days after the Supreme Court allowed the bursting of the green firecrackers on Diwali.

The CM added, “My government is serving Delhi with utmost honesty and commitment. We have prioritised the issues that directly affect the lives of our citizens. By addressing the shortcomings of earlier schemes, we have ensured that pensions and aid reach the rightful beneficiaries, especially the poor and elderly. We are also taking continuous steps to empower our mothers and sisters. Our government is expediting long-delayed flyover and infrastructure projects, while also introducing new initiatives in education and sports.”

The Chief Minister further said that one of the government’s foremost pledges is to make the River Yamuna clean and pollution-free. “Work is underway on a war footing, and we are confident that soon the Yamuna will regain the pristine form it deserves.” She also said that serious efforts are being made to ensure a round-the-clock supply of clean drinking water across Delhi. “It is our firm commitment that very soon every household in Delhi will have access to piped water.”
