Punekars marched from Balgandharva Chowk to the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) on Sunday, demanding a strict action against excessive noise and a complete ban on DJ systems during religious and public celebrations. The protest, organized by the 'Loudspeaker-Virodhi Punekar Manch', is a further escalation of the campaign led by citizen activist Vidyanand Bapat, who was assaulted while speaking against high-decibel DJs during Ganeshotsav.
Protesters demanded that noise regulations be enforced uniformly during all religious festivals and processions, rather than targeting any particular community or festival, emphasizing their stance that they are not against Ganeshotsav or any religion.
