In his letter to principals, Sisodia said that in order to discourage use of fire crackers on Diwali for controlling air and noise pollution, Delhi government is conducting a campaign with support of all stakeholders and Eco Clubs.
"Your institutions may accordingly organise various awareness programmes - nukkad nataks, padyatras, seminars, workshops by encouraging maximum participations of students.
"Further, students may be advised to carry the message of "no fire crackers" to their homes and neighbours," Sisodia said in the letter.
"I am sure that your (principals) active support and cooperation in making the anti fire crackers campaign successful will go a long way in reducing pollution levels in the city on Diwali," the Deputy Chief Minister added.
