  92. Sir,
  93. Date: 26th March, 2018
  94. Through the column of your esteemed daily, I wish to draw the attention of the authorities concerned about the noise pollution in Devapur, Guwahaty.
  95. Since 20the March, 2018 the Devapur area has been being kept busy wildly and disturbed by loudspeakers. Some business men in collaboration with some reckless youths of the locality have been holding fairs and theatres in the open pastures near Navajoyti Jatiya Bidyalaya.
  96. We have already informed the police of that; they visited the spot and ordered them to run the programmes after 10 p.m. without using loudspeaker. But the sponsors of the programmes made a deaf ear to the command of the police and have been producing much sound pollution day and night even more vehemently. Already the H. S..L. C. and H. S. Examination is near at hand. The nuisance of loud speaker has deteriorated the educational environment of the locality beyond description.
  97. In the interest of the peaceful inhabitants and the students I highly request and draw concdrned authorities through this esteemed daily to take necessary action againt the noise pollution produced by the business guild.
  98. Yours faithfully
  99. Anjali, Fancy Bazar Guwahati.
