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:
