Notably, the Minister for Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution (CA&PD) department, Chowdhary Zulfikar Ali had set a norm regarding guest control in the functions in which he also banned the use of crackers in any function or event.
However, the activists of the coalition partner in the incumbent government, BJP took to streets in the Jawahar Nagar area of Srinagar today and celebrated the poll win in UP and Uttrakhand.
The BJP activists including men and women were chanting pro-BJP and pro-Modi slogans during the celebration and were carrying the flags of the party.
The Kashmiri BJP activists used a number of crackers during the celebration while the authorities failed to take action against them.
It seems that the rules always remain on papers without any their implementation as violators in such cases never get penalized.
Meanwhile, the district administration told KNS that the order has not been implemented so far. “The norm set by the government has not been implemented so far. The order will come into force from April this year,” the district administration said. (KNS)
