The restrictions aim to mitigate the release of harmful particulate matter like PM2.5 and PM10, which can worsen air quality, especially in urban areas during winter. Loud fireworks can disturb vulnerable groups such as infants, senior citizens, and patients. Improper handling of firecrackers may lead to injuries, fires, and accidents. Despite these measures, enforcement challenges and illegal sales of conventional crackers remain significant risks, potentially undermining the intended benefits of the restrictions.
