Bhopal, Oct 24: Indirectly criticising Supreme Court for allowing to burst crackers only for two hours (8 pm to 10 pm) on Diwali, the ruling BJP MP from Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain Lok Sabha constituency Chintamani Malviya has said that he won’t tolerate any interference in Hindu traditions and was ready to happily to go to jail for furthering his religious traditions.

In a Facebook post, the BJP parliamentarian wrote in Hindi “Mai apni Diwali apne paramparagat tarike se manaoonga aur raat mein luxmi pujan ke baad 10 baje ke baad hi patakhe jalaoonga (I’ll celebrate my Diwali in the traditional manner and burst crackers after 10 pm, once I’ve completed the Luxmi Puja).”

Malviya added in the same post, “Humari Hindu parampara mein kisi ki bhi dakhalandaji mein hargiz bardasht nahi kar sakta. Meri dharmik paramparaon ke liye yadi mujhe jail bhi jaanaa pade toh mai khushi khushi jail bhi jaaoonga (I won’t tolerate any interference in Hindu traditions. Even if I have go to jail, I’ll happily go to jail for my religious tradition).

On Tuesday, the SC declined to order a country-wide ban of firecrackers, holding that compliance with certain safeguards will rather help strike a balance.

A bench headed by Justice AK Sikri said "improved and green" crackers can be manufactured and sold only by the licensed holders. The court imposed a complete ban on the sale of firecrackers by e-commerce firms, including Amazon and Flipkart. It added that firecrackers will also have to comply with the prescribed noise levels and also barred the use of some chemicals, including barium salt, in the manufacturing.

The court clarified that on festivals, including Diwali, the bursting of firecrackers will be allowed only between 8 pm and 10 pm. On Christmas and New Year's Eve, the bench said, crackers can be burst between 11.45 pm and 12.45 am.

New Delhi, Apr 22: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said that The Epidemic Diseases (Amendment) Ordinance, 2020, manifests his government's commitment to protecting healthcare workers braving COVID-19 on the frontline.
"The Epidemic Diseases (Amendment) Ordinance, 2020, manifests our commitment to protect each and every healthcare worker, who is bravely battling COVID-19 on the frontline. It will ensure the safety of our professionals. There can be no compromise on their safety!," Prime Minister Modi tweeted.
The Central government on Wednesday brought an ordinance to end the violence against health workers, making it a cognizable, non-bailable offence with the imprisonment of up to seven years for those found guilty.

"We have brought an ordinance under which any attack on health workers will be a cognizable, non-bailable offence. In the case of grievous injuries, the accused can be sentenced from 6 months to 7 years. They can be penalised from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 5 lakh," Union Minister Prakash Javadekar briefed media after the meeting of the Cabinet.

"Such crime will now be cognisable and non-bailable. An investigation will be done within 30 days. Accused can be sentenced from three months to five years, and penalised from Rs 50,000 up to Rs 2 lakh," said Javadekar.

Moreover, if the damage is done to vehicles or clinics of healthcare workers, then a compensation amounting to twice the market value of the damaged property will be taken from the accused, said Javadekar.
