Sound pollution

1 October 2006, 18:00 PM

Dhaka city is full of motorised vehicles. Some of these vehicles are using high-sounding horns that are creating sound pollution. The horns trouble the pedestrians and sometimes people travelling by CNG autorickshaws and rickshaws. Their eardrums come under tremendous pressure.

I would like to request the vehicle owners not to use blaring horns. I would also request the authorities concerned to control use of such horns.
