Reacting sharply at the incident, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav averred that stopping kids and other people from bursting crackers was unfair and such acts would not be tolerated. He asserted that stringent action would be ensured against all those who tried to take the law into their own hands.
“Our government will not tolerate anyone’s actions to stop kids and others from bursting crackers,” he stated. “The government is committed to safeguarding all religions but anyone who tries to stop people from celebrating Diwali would not be spared,” the CM averred.
