When discussing / complaining about the noise pollution, why one should mention adhan (bank) from mosques? Is it that a "secular balancing act" since one could easily identify the daily "bhakthi ganamela" from temples as a source of noise pollution? How come a 2 mnt adhan being an example of noise pollution- that too in a town like Valancheri with such heavy traffic 24 hrs? Why one needs to quote "*Allah so deaf that the mullah needs to shout himself to death so that He may hear his supplication*" when discussing noise pollution?
