Drawing the attention of the Chief Minister, Chief Secretary, Pollution Control Board, and other allied departments to the online sale of non-green crackers in Karnataka, like-minded civic groups have recommended a blanket ban on all crackers this festival season as the only choice for proper implementation of the 2016 Supreme Court orders on green crackers.
