New Delhi, Oct. 14 -- Delhi Police seized 725 kg of banned firecrackers during two separate operations in Dwarka and Najafgarh and arrested two individuals for illegal stockpiling, an official said today.
Acting on a tip-off, a team raided a house in Uttam Nagar and arrested Gaurav Gupta, recovering 77 kg of firecrackers from his residence, the officer said.
Gupta, who previously sold firecrackers under a valid license until 2022, continued the trade despite the ban on the sale and use of prohibited fireworks, police said.
