Noise pollution has become an unavoidable part of our daily lives. Whether we like it or not, we have to tolerate it. I want to talk about a particularly noisy experience I had. It happened almost a year ago, in the last month of 2023. It was during Durga Puja, a major festival for Hindus, celebrated annually. The participants believe that by participating in this event, they are pleasing their God. The event itself was enjoyable until the loud music started. This became a problem for nearby residents. I couldn't sleep that night because of the loudspeakers. In our country, there's a rule prohibiting the use of loudspeakers after 10:00 p.m., but they didn't follow it. I tried to reduce the noise by closing my windows, but it didn't work. As a last resort, I covered my head with a pillow. I worried about the elderly and teenagers who might be more vulnerable to the noise. I think other countries might have similar issues with excessive noise during festivals.
