Govt Bodies Differ: Centre to Test Green Crackers Afresh The central government's decision to conduct fresh tests on green crackers has sparked confusion about its commitment to environmental protection.
This move comes after two government organizations – the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research NEERI (CSIR NEERI) and the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) – took opposing stances on the commercial production of green firecrackers.
The Centre has assured the Supreme Court that tests will be conducted in four major cities: New Delhi, Bhopal, Kolkata, and Chennai.
