This Indian city that said no to traffic jams and honking because…, it is in…

The worst part of traffic is never Honking. However, there is a city in India that puts an end to this unnecessary Honing. Aizawl, the capital of Mizoram, became the first Indian city to adopt a non -Hon policy without any official assistance or legislation.

The average decibel level of a car horn is around 110db, a serious health hazard, as any sound over 60-70db can gradually damage the hearing. Noise pollution has become such a serious problem in cities that ENT experts say that most of the urban population has lost its ability to hear under 20DB.

The loud city: mumbai

Horn Honing is considered the most common source of noise pollution. A report published in 2013 declared Mumbai as the most noisy city in the country, followed by Lucknow, Haydarabad, New Delhi and Chennai. Seventy percent of the noise pollution in the group causes Honing. The fines imposed on violations are very low and people are uncomfortable with high horns on the roads. If a person is constantly exposed to noise on 55DB, he increases in the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Who says what

According to a WHO study, “One million healthy living years are disappearing due to traffic noise.” Aizawl’s story was recorded in a short film Tranquuility, which shows how the city people came together to make their homes noise. The film was shot by six young people from Nagaland and Mizoram and was also directed by the actor, director and choreographer Prabhu Deva.

In metropolises such as Mumbai and Delhi, everyone seems to hurry, and whistling never stops, in Aizawl, you are only welcomed with the chirping of beautiful and melodic birds. With the attempt to eliminate noise pollution, Aizawl set an example for the whole country.
