Noise Pollution and Its Effect on Human Health
Rapid urbanisation and changing lifestyles have led to an increase in noise pollution, affecting human health and the psychological well-being of people.
The rapid urbanisation and changing lifestyles have given rise to increasing ambient noise levels from various sources, which have deleterious effects on human health and psychological well-being.
The erratic, flashing, and impulsive noise produced by bursting firecrackers, use of loud speakers, musical instruments, or sound amplifiers, and unnecessary honking of horns creates disharmony of noise.

what is music for some can be noise for others, it is essential to address this issue.
To curb the growing problem of noise pollution, the Government of India has enacted the Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules 2000, framed under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, which provides regulations for noise.
