The right to a clean environment is a fundamental facet of human well-being, and the celebration of festivals, such as Diwali, often brings to the forefront the delicate balance between cultural traditions and environmental concerns. This discussion revolves around whether the right to a clean environment implies the need for legal regulations on burning crackers during Diwali in the context of Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. Article 21, which guarantees the right to life and personal liberty, has been expansively interpreted by the judiciary to include the right to a healthy environment. The Apex Court, in various judgments, has underscored the importance of environmental protection and has acknowledged that individual actions affecting the environment can infringe upon the right to life of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several landmark judgments, such as those related to noise pollution and air quality during Diwali, have set precedents for regulating activities that compromise the environment. The court’s jurisprudence has often emphasized the need for striking a balance between cultural practices and environmental sustainability. Therefore, this discourse explores the implications of the right to a clean environment on the legal regulation of burning crackers during Diwali, examining the nuances of Article 21 and scrutinizing pertinent judgments that have shaped the legal landscape surrounding this contentious issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
