This blog is created to promote awareness on the problem of noise pollution and excessive honking in India in particular. It started as a college campaign in Pune in 2007 and has since recorded news, articles and initiatives around the world that address this topic. Let us all start from ourselves to reduce our contribution to the chaos on Indian roads. Let us promote silence before all we hear is only silence! Please email vipulshaha [at] gmail.com for your suggestions and ideas.
