Delhi to see cracker free Diwali ; SC refuses to lift ban, says invest in sweets instead_我的网站
一 | New Delhi, Oct 20 (UNI) Supreme Court declined to lift the ban on firecrackers and refused to hear the petition filed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, Manoj Tiwari challenging the blanket ban on firecrackers in Delhi, after noting that let people breathe clean air and spend your money on sweets instead.
"Let the people breathe clean air, and spend your money on sweets instead," the Supreme Court's bench, headed by Justice M R Shah said, in his order and refused to lift the ban on firecrackers.
Lawyer Shashank Shekhar Jha, advocate appearing for Tiwari, had pleaded to the Supreme Court for lifting ban on firecrackers. He urged the Top that the Delhi government's order on blanket ban on firecrackers is a complete violation. So thereby this Court should pass appropriate order and direction in lifting the ban on firecrackers.
Jha also submitted to the Apex Court that this court had earlier allowed crackers without Barium Salt and green crackers. So this time also, this court should allow sort of similar directions and orders.
Jha also submitted to the Apex Court that the pollution is rising due to Parali (stubble burning) burning and other factors, but Justice Shah refused to hear it on urgent basis and said the Court would hear the petition later.
The BJP leader, Tiwari, had moved the Supreme Court challenging the blanket van order of the Delhi Government on firecrackers in Delhi. But after keeping in view the fact that the pollution level is not in levels, so declined to lift the ban on firecrackers.
Tiwari sought directions to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government to issue fresh guidelines with regard to sale, purchase and bursting of permissible firecrackers during the upcoming festive season.
The BJP MP also sought directions to all States not to take any coercive action like lodging FIR against common people found selling or using permissible firecrackers.
"In the name of Right to life, freedom of religion cannot be taken away and that a balance has to be struck like that has been done through the decision of this Court dated October 29, 2021," submitted the plea filed through advocate Ashwani Kumar Dubey and Shashank Shekhar Jha.
In 2021, the Supreme Court had clarified there is no blanket ban on use of firecrackers and only those fireworks which contain barium salts are prohibited.
The Top Court had banned the usage of firecrackers which are found to be injurious to health while making it clear that there was no blanket ban on crackers and that people can include permissible firecrackers to celebrate their festival, the plea said.
The AAP government in Delhi on September 7 put a blanket ban on firecrackers with immediate effect in the capital till January 1, 2023.
UNI BAV SY GNK。 London, Oct 12 (UNI) Refugee families in Syrian camps are begging for donations on TikTok while the company takes up to 70 per cent of the proceeds, a BBC investigation has found.
Children are livestreaming on the social media app for hours, pleading for digital gifts with a cash value.
The BBC saw streams earning up to $1,000 (£900) an hour, but found refugees received only a tiny fraction of that.
TikTok said it would take prompt action against "exploitative begging", the BBC report said.
The company said this type of content was not allowed on its platform, and it said its commission from digital gifts was significantly less than 70 per cent. But it declined to confirm the exact amount.
Earlier this year, TikTok users saw their feeds fill with livestreams of refugee families in Syrian camps, drawing support from some viewers and concerns about scams from others.
In the camps in north-west Syria, the BBC found that the trend was being facilitated by so-called "TikTok middlemen", who provided families with the phones and equipment to go live.
The middlemen said they worked with agencies affiliated to TikTok in China and the Middle East, who gave the families access to TikTok accounts. These agencies are part of TikTok's global strategy to recruit livestreamers and encourage users to spend more time on the app, the BBC said.
The gifts they're asking for are virtual, but they cost the viewers real money and can be withdrawn from the app as cash. Livestream viewers send the gifts - ranging from digital roses, costing a few cents, to virtual lions costing around $500 - to reward or tip creators for content.
For five months, the BBC followed 30 TikTok accounts broadcasting live from Syrian refugee camps and built a computer program to scrape information from them, showing that viewers were often donating digital gifts worth up to $1,000 an hour to each account.
Families in the camps said they were receiving only a tiny fraction of these sums, however, the BBC report said.
TikTok influencer and ex-professional rugby player Keith Mason donated $330 during one family's livestream and encouraged his nearly one million followers to do the same.
When told by the BBC that most of these funds were taken by the social media company, Mason said it was "ridiculous" and "unfair" to families in Syria.
"You've got to have some transparency. To me, that's very greedy. It's greed," he said.
TikTok's rules say you must have 1,000 followers before you can go live, you must not directly solicit for gifts and must "prevent the harm, endangerment or exploitation" of minors on the platform.
After the BBC contacted TikTok directly for comment, the company banned all of the accounts.
It said in a statement: "We are deeply concerned by the information and allegations brought to us by the BBC, and have taken prompt and rigorous action.
"This type of content is not allowed on our platform, and we are further strengthening our global policies around exploitative begging."
TikTok, the world's fastest-growing social media app, has made more than $6.2 billion in gross revenue from in-app spending since its launch in 2017, according to analytics company Sensor Tower.
