Market areas in Old Delhi wore a rather dry look Tuesday ahead of Diwali, as shopkeepers having old stock of firecrackers were not selling them due to restrictions imposed by the Supreme Court.
Firecrackers are sold mostly at markets in Sadar Bazar and Jama Masjid areas.
Devraj Baweja, president, Delhi Vyapari Mahasangh said, "A team of police came to Sadar Bazar area to inform the shopkeepers about the new guidelines after the apex court ruling early this month."
