As per the Supreme Court’s order, the Noida Authority has earmarked 21 places for community fire cracking on the occasion of Diwali. The identified spots are located at parks and vacant plots across various sectors.
As these spots are not available at all the sectors, people will have to go to the nearest sector to burn firecrackers.
The office on special duty (OSD) of Noida Authority, Rajesh Kumar Singh said that they will inform people about the selected spots and will also request people to burst crackers at the designated places only.
