Gollum Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 About 95% of the firecrackers in India are produced in Sivakasi, a town in the Virudhunagar district of Tamil Nadu. The firecracker industry is worth around Rs 6,000 crore a year and employs more than 8 lakh workers directly and indirectly.

It is just not there in our DNA. That's not correct. Your everyday Indians do more than the regular persons globally, see our donations to temples, daily charity. We believe in karma, and giving back is important, and build in our DNA. The point is with some of our millionaires, their excessive money can be used for strategic investment for the nation. Instead, they pursue their wealth to get to a seat in the western elite tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riya Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Whats wrong when someone says the right thing...i don't follow these celebrity pages,but then i have no problem if someone makes sense....we can take it or ignore it,.,All modern western societies have banned the usage of firecrackers for domestic purposes. So why can't we adopt something good and useful...Be it Kohli or anyone that says something sensible...why we need to attack them with ''whataboutery''...Whether he makes sense or not...Thats the only question...Here Kohli makes sense...Thats it.

May be they look for alternatives in the coming days...but why always this whataboutery..?I felt that we as a society has become so fragile and fickleminded just like those muslim groups who burn everything at the drop of a hat calling it as an attack on Islam...we used to mock them and yet we are right at the same path..It looks like we want to be like them to protect our religion...I don't know its a good idea...everything making it into anti Hindutva... Definitely there are certain things that needs to be taken care of , but banning firecarckers is not a bad idea...imo..not an attack on hinduism...Atleast the Hindu inside me doesn't feel threatened by that..

If they do call for that ban, they should also provide viable alternatives. They are not that smart or concerned. Their biggest hypocrisy is pointed out in the initial few posts on this thread - celebrities' overall individual environmental footprint is much higher than that of the kids bursting crackers or an individual farmer burning stubble. Until their own footprint is equal to or less than the people they are preaching to - be it farmers or kids - they need to shut the eff up or bear the backlash. beetle and Gollum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is Hinduism coming in your ad-hominems? We are calling out on the hypocrisy of these celebs on Diwali celebrations of ONE-DAY to preach us on pollution etc., when they fly to Italy to get married and have gas-guzzling SUVs for convenience. AQI of Delhi 1 month before was worse on Diwali day. Why is banning crackers a good idea in your opinion? What good does it serve other than resentment of those jailed for bursting a few crackers.

Cascade effect so be it, let everyone get affected, let everyone feel the economic pinch, maybe that will make them more considerate towards local entrepreneurs and traders. In future if Bengal, Haryana, UP, Rajasthan govts want to ban crackers let them pass orders 10 months in advance rather than screwing everybody over with their last minute BS announcements. Don't think it created misery to manufacturers but sellers. Sellers purchased cracker much before ban was declared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
