Which has become a cause of enough headaches for the medical community. In this situation, the doctors' forum has written to the Chief Minister of the state, fearing that the death rate in Covid may increase a lot if the betting is going on in Diwali.

In an application made to the Chief Minister of the state on the same day, they said that a ban on betting can be imposed like this time. Otherwise, many people may die due to respiratory problems.

Now it is seen that many people have recovered very quickly from Kovid but then various problems are appearing in the body.

In their case, the smoke from the fireworks will be a death knell. Therefore, the forum has requested the state government to ban the sale and burning of fireworks this year.
