Here’s wishing a Very Happy Belated Diwali to the whole team of Online News India as well. CATS wish a successful and prosperous year ahead for you all.
As far as Anti Cracker campaign is concerned, CATS as young as 7yrs had made a promise of not burning the crackers and successfully overcame the temptation on Diwali night. CATS either refrained from burning crackers altogether or bought only Anar or Phuljhari in token quantity only whereby ‘Shagun Ritual’ in respective families demanded that atleast some crackers were burnt. This way CATS ensured that atleast they did not contribute to the noise pollution in their vicinity.
We cant change traditions, rituals and habits overnight, but we all can make a start from now. Every little helps!
Jab Jaage tabhee sawera.
