A village in South India is celebrating festivals without any bursting noise, just for the sake of bats. They are following this eco-loving principle for the past five generations, more than hundred years. As usual this year also they celebrated Diwali yesterday without any cracker noise.
Diwali in India means crackers and fireworks. The first thing that comes to the mind about Indian Diwali is the cracker noise that even tears the eardrum. There is no festival without cracker noise. But just for the sake of safeguarding bats which live on their village trees, people of Kazhuperumbakkam in South India never allow any bursting noise in their village. Not only for Diwali but also for other festive occasions and functions they are more concerned about these bats than enjoying crackers.
