10. So are the five star hotels. Even a movie with your entire family in the cinema theatres.
ReplyDelete9. Children even work in TV and films. That too not because they have no other choice, but because they want to earn hard bucks.
8. So don't buy anything from anyone who doesn't adhere to any guidelines. Do a complete survey before buying anything and everything.
7. UV are released even from sun, light emitting diodes, gas discharge lamps and infrared again from sun and even light bulbs. It is only harmful if it's in excess. Hence don't exaggerate.
6. When Ram returned to Ayodhya, people welcomed his return with diyas (lamps) because that is what was available at that

Come on, Diwali doesn't last the entire year. Let the children enjoy crackers. Don't preach. Stop behaving as if you are genteel and civilized. And all the others are savage people.
If you yourself burst crackers in your childhood, even once, you have no moral right to tell others. If not, again you don't have the right to enforce your views on others. Let everyone think of themselves.
The Reader's view are appreciable.The blog is just a compilation of information on net and not preaching.Good to have a concrete response to the blog Post.
