Despite the clear-cut provisions of this rule, [rajman welding works] is generating obnoxious noise by [mention purpose-iron cutting and welding to construct the doors, railing etc] which is a blatant violation of law in the residential area.

Despite the clear cut violation of provisions of this rule, mr.

But he seems to be reluctant in this metter and nothing has been done in this regard even, he already owns another shop and warehouse near market area (4-5th shop towards main road). Also his labour boys have done obnoxious noise by group hammering. It has become a routine practice of the factory owner.

We all are living with our old parents and little kids who are not able to sleep, study most of the times and have started to suffering with stress and anxiety due to the same whole day. We are unable to do any work at home and it is a big headache for us. I and my mother have been got down in disease of blood pressure owing to this obnoxious noise of hammer which is produced by this factory. We lost our freedom due to this excruciating sound. This factory is ruining our peace of mind and people’s right to rest. I would not be complaining if it was a one off day, but this factory is relentless in its operations with total disregard to public and legal obligations.
