Delhi Police has issued new instructions regarding loudspeakers. Now loudspeakers will not be played louder than the prescribed standards at any religious place. Permission will have to be taken from the police to install loudspeakers at any place. Loudspeakers or public address systems cannot be used in public places without permission. Police permission will also be required to take loudspeakers from tent houses.
Police issued instructions
The sound level in public places will be limited to a maximum of 10 dB(A).
The sound of privately owned sound systems should not exceed 5 dB(A) from the prescribed limit.
In industrial areas, a 75dB noise limit has been set from 6 am to 10 pm and a 70dB noise limit from 10 pm to 6 am.
