Aerial firing is the practice of shooting guns into the air, often as a way to celebrate special occasions such as weddings, sports victories, and religious festivities.
On the eve of celebrations like Chand Raat, when people gather in large numbers for shopping, socializing, and marking the end of Ramadan, this practice tends to increase in some areas.
