We really enjoy creating noise and pollution. See our marraige processions. 

Since we don't have the custom of marriage processions in South India , I have no idea how bad it is but I can guess. When a law is put in place it is bound to cover all communities  .

Leave aside Marriage processions

When it comes to political Parties, there is a political Party that is communal in nature and double tongued.

As usual another misguided post ...Plz stick to the topic !

Its 10 times worse than what one can imagine. They cover the whole road causing inconvenience to the daily traffic and the music is so loud, you can't hear yourself while passing by the procession. But that's the thing about most North Indian marriages.

Marriage processions are still in vogue in AP.

Of course, these Marriage processions cause head ache to the wayfarers

Not just North India, but it has become a practice in Maharashtra too! People swinging and dancing wildly to latest popular hits played loudly on huge speakers, ladies, men and children all decked up in wedding finery dancing like fools around the groom sitting on the horse, is a sight extremely irritating and hilarious at the same time!

I  support ban on loudspeakers near Hospitals and schools. But we need see the real nuisance. The mosques are definitely no so many as temples. Any one would just place some statue or other religious symbol somewhere and then begin nuisance. Anjaan is at least early morning for very short duration unlike the Devi Jagarans for very long night hours. The anjaan may disturb somebody's  sleep early morning for very short duration but the devi jagaran will not let you sleep whole night. As regards Hindu festivals, it is okay to use loudspeakers for a few hours in day time but whole night is very disturbing. The term 'Jagaran' it self means- 'Wake up'. The very intention of Ratri Devi Jaagran is not to let you sleep whole night. .  

What about Mosques amidst living areas? These mosques have become a nuisance for all those people living around, not once but 5 times.Who gave them right to disturb other's ?

Any religion be it Hindus or Muslims using loud Speakers is not good.

In Vizianagarm,  my neighboring district Mosques are much away from the city limits.. With these Mosques, there is no problem

Hence,  I am of the opinion Either Hindus or Muslims should not use loud Speakers to spread  thier religious messages

I guess one needs to see it depending on different regions. Here in South India we have no Jagaran nor any night long bhajan anywhere since it is banned after 11 at night . The only great nuisance is the azan that is there every single morning sometimes coming from different directions. As far as numbers are concerned my city has as many mosques or more number of mosques than temples ...
