Many villages in Maharashtra have celebrated Diwali without firecrackers for over a decade to reduce air and noise pollution. Villages like Borade, Manyachiwadi, Langarpeth, and Padali have adopted this practice, with the Satara Zilla Parishad encouraging cracker-free celebrations. Violators face fines, and alternative events like lighting diyas and games are organized.
