Turn the volume down

March 14, 2019

The insensitive use of loudspeakers has created a nuisance in our cities. Noise pollution is one of the greatest problems that people living in cities have to deal with. The most annoying thing is that the loud speakers have now become an integral part of almost all celebrations.

People seem to believe that even private occasions like marriage functions and birthday parties will be incomplete without loud speakers. Elders and children are most affected by this insensitive use of loudspeakers. It is time that authorities took serious action against this problem.
