The Supreme Court Wednesday refused to interfere with the Delhi government`s order putting a comprehensive ban on manufacture, storage, sale and bursting of firecrackers in the capital city.
BJP Lok Sabha MP Manoj Tiwari told a bench of Justices AS Bopanna and MM Sundresh that a complete ban has been imposed on firecrackers despite the court allowing bursting of green firecrackers.
