A Mumbai-based NGO reported that noise levels during the immersion processions of Ganesha idols and Eid-e-Milad celebrations in city were notably lower compared to the previous year, stated a PTI report. According to data provided by the Awaaz Foundation, the highest noise level recorded during these events reached 114.7 decibels (dB) in Matunga on Thursday, followed by 114.1 dB at Girgaon Chowpatty post-midnight.
The report cited that the data indicated that noise levels for both the Ganpati festival and Eid-e-Milad were reduced compared to the previous year, primarily due to the presence of fewer DJs at both events. In the previous year, the highest recorded noise level reached 120.2 dB at Opera House, and political speeches, which extended beyond midnight, were registered at 106.9 dB.
