New Delhi [India], October 17 (ANI): Two Delhi Police personnel have been suspended on Tuesday for negligence after Vigilance Unit found a shopkeeper for illegally selling crackers even after the Supreme Court's order to ban the sale of firecrackers till November 1.
A departmental inquiry has been ordered in this case.
A 40-year-old shopkeeper, who runs mobile recharge shop, was arrested for allegedly selling firecrackers.
