The Editor,
The Times of India

Subject: Heavy and damaging noise pollution in the city.

Respected Sir,
 
I would like to draw your attention of the concerned authorities towards the increasing problems of noise pollution. It is causing great damage to the health of our
people in the city. It leads to irritation, loss of sleep .It is harmful to the physical and mental health of the people. Persistent noise pollution causes loss of sense of
hearing.
Increasing noise pollution is a threat to health and fitness of people, which will affect their hearing capacity. The honking of vehicles, loudspeakers, construction
work and many other factors increasing the noise in the city, ignoring and violating the noise control laws.
It is time the authorities take action and strictly enforce the noise control laws. The noise producing factories in the residential areas should be shifted to far-off places.
The use of loudspeakers should be stopped after a specific time.
I sincerely hope that the concerned authorities will take immediate and necessary action against those responsible for noise pollution to relieve the people from
harmful effects of noise pollution.
 
Thanking You,
Yours truly
 
Sagarika Roy
