Order of High Court of Judicature at Bombay.  Writ Petition of 180 of  1998.

Coram : M.B. Shah, C.J. & D.N. Srikrishna J
Date    : 23rd February 1998
P/C.     : It is contended by the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners that, despite our various orders passed in Writ Petition No.837 of 1998 and other Writ Petitions, the direction that persons should not be permitted to use loud-speakers after 10.00 P.M. is not followed.

CONSIDERING THE AFORESAID CONTENTION AND THE PETITIONER’S GREVANCES, THE COMMISSIONER OF POLICE IS DIRECTED TO PUBLISH NOTICE IN NEWSPAPERS THAT NOBODY IS PERMITTED TO USE LOUD-SPEAKER AFTER 10.00 P.M. AND THAT WHOSOEVER COMMITS BREACH OF THE PERMISSION WOULD BE PROSECUTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LAW.  EVEN UPTO 10.00 P.M.  THE LOUDSPEAKER WOULD BE TUNED AT A REASONABLY LOW DECIBEL.  THE DEPUTY COMMISSIONER OF POLICE OF THAT PARTICULAR ZONE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENFORCING THESE DIRECTIONS.
