NEW DELHI [NCRBuzz Wire] — **NEW DELHI [NCRBuzz Wire] — Commuters and residents searching for whether green crackers are allowed in Delhi-NCR during the festive season will find that the Supreme Court has instituted a strictly regulated schedule for green firecrackers.** Under the permitted schedule overseen by municipal authorities and environmental monitoring bodies such as CAQM, citizens can burst green firecrackers between 6:00 AM and 7:00 AM and again from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM on November 7 and 8.
