Noise pollution in Dhaka
Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, is plagued with noise pollution.
The city suffers from incessant noise from car horns, loud speakers, construction work, etc. According to study of World Health organization (WHO), we have noise levels of excessive decibels coming out of traffic congestions, factories and various other sources.
While most of the sources of noise pollution maybe unavoidable, I think noise from loud speakers and needless use of car horns can be brought under control. I urge the authorities to address these easily avoidable problems on a priority basis.
