Subject: The insensitive use loudspeakers.
Sir,
With due respect I would like to bring to your kind attention the problem of irresponsible use of loudspeakers (PA Systems) in towns and cities.
First, celebration of festivals are a time of joy that everyone look forward to. The problem is not celebration of festivals, but the manner in which they are celebrated. The use of loudspeakers during festival seasons need to be restricted.
Second, there are restaurants, cafes and night clubs where loud music is played late into the night in the name of birthday celebrations and parties.
The misuse of loudspeakers is public disturbance and another form of noice pollution. Noise pollution is known to cause headache, irritation, and other problems in a person. It interferes with the study times of students whose future depends on doing well in their examinations.
Therefore, I feel that the use of loudspeakers should be completely banned.
Yours sincerely,
