Delhi decibel level peaks in last phase of Kanwar Yatra
Hindustan Times Delhi
|July 23, 2025
For a fifth day in a row, boom box-laden trucks blared deafening music along city roads, besides causing traffic jams and gridlocking key junctions on Tuesday.
The Delhi Pollution Control Committee's (DPCC's) real-time noise monitoring data website showed decibel levels exceeding noise norms at multiple locations in Delhi on Tuesday. Between 6am and 10pm, an average of 75.6 dB(A) was recorded at the otherwise relatively quiet Dr Karni Singh Shooting Range station near Tughlaqabad. It was 69.3 db(A) at Aurobindo Marg, 72.5 dB(A) at the National Stadium, with the highest average, of 87.5 dB(A), recorded at Shahdara.
The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) permits a maximum noise level in residential areas of 55dB(A) between 6am and 10pm. This threshold falls to 45dB(A) from 10pm till 6am.
Even as Kanwariyas sat atop music systems on trucks in the middle of main carriageways of roads, blaring music—ignoring lanes earmarked for them—police were helpless to take action.
