A local campaign has been calling to the people on use of cow dung diyas.

They gave preference on made local campaign for home made products. Making and using these organic diyas can benefit local workers like in small scale industry. Social activists said that cow dung lamps also good for the environment. Here on the occasion of Diwali, there are no goods from China or goods made in China in many places in India.
