Shop in front of the house causing noise pollution/nuisance.what to do


07-Mar-2023 (In Civil Law)
There is a shop running in residential area exactly in-front of my house since many year. It is creating tremendous amount of noise pollution. Average 200 vehicles visits daily this shop, Shop owners shouting disturbs our lives. Due to traffic jam passing by vehicles honks further adds nuisance. We have to keep our doors and windows shuts full the time. Some how they have got license from shop and establishment and also legalized illegal construction by impact fee. So as per municipal authorities it is legal. Neighbors are not supportive though they are also suffering less or more. (typical indian mind set) since my house in infront of shop and direct affecting my peaceful life. How can I fight this situation? Can I alone fight without help of neighbors?Help would be grateful.

Got a license from Municipality does not means to create a Noise pollution. You can approach the Municipality under the
Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) (Amendment) Rules, 2010. Stage 1- Direct approach Municipality in writing, Wait for the action, if negative. Approach Local lawyer and send the notice to municipal dept copy to commissioner and collector.
