Thanks to the Supreme Court, Dr Vinay Jetley’s Diwali will be a breathable one. Due to pollution, the cardiologist get’s sick days before Diwali. So much so that Jetley and his family have to leave the city during the “festivities” and move to a less polluted place.

So, this Diwali, Jetley urges us all to look after the environment, because “It’s important we breathe. If we don’t breathe, how do you expect to celebrate the festival.”
