Cops turn deaf ear to Diwali noise violations [1]

MUMBAI: The city witnessed one of the nosiest Diwalis in recent years as residents ignored noise pollution norms and cops turned a deaf ear to
the violations. Mumbaikars endured deafening firecrackers past midnight on October 17 and into the wee hours. The city awoke on Sunday to a sulphurous smog that caused discomfort to early morning joggers and asthma patients.
