India Today quoted him as saying, “Will they (authorities) station a police personnel at each house or will they deploy a police team at each and every street?” The apex court modified its earlier order of fixing an 8 to 10 pm slot for bursting crackers on Diwali, saying the time would be changed in southern states like Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, but not exceed the two-hour duration. Diwali falls on 6 November in Tamil Nadu. The Tamil Nadu government Friday said people would be allowed to burst firecrackers between 6 am and 7 am and 7 pm and 8 pm on Diwali, in line with the Supreme Court directive. With inputs from PTI
