    Good disicion during this pendamic.We have to take it seriously because Corona virus spike protein targeting the lungs. Good quality of air will an added advantage those with weak immunity.
    If Corona control is achieved everything will be normal
    I am against the inhumane way of producing fire crackers in Sivakasi of TN state where thousands of child labourers are utilized for hazardous task.Also we don't require China made products

    Very good move by CM sir, public health and preventing of noise-air pollution is necessary at this juncture ..... Festivals can be celebrated next year too .... i support complete permanent ban to firecrackers, it is nuisance and hazardous too ....
