Harmful effects of noise include:

• Loss of hearing

• Increase in blood pressure

• Sleep disturbances

• Heightened irritability

• Digestion problems

The 10th of every month is now No Honking Day in Bangalore. On 28th April 2010, International Noise Awareness Day, Mission Peace in association with Karnataka Police launched a monthly No Honking Day for Karnataka State.

LET US ALL:

• Use horn only when absolutely

necessary; use cut-out for

reverse-horn, especially in silent

zones and during the night.

• Not use shrill or multi-tone or

multi-blow horns.

• Fix the silencer of our twowheelers

or four-wheelers.

• Avoid travelling in autorickshaws

with tampered silencers.

• Switch off loudspeakers beyond

permitted hours.

If you believe in the cause, sign the pledge to curb noise pollution:
