We are quite unaware of noise pollution although it causes physiological and psychological problems like annoyance, aggression, hypertension, high stress level, obsession, headaches, hearing loss, sleep disturbance, heart disease, and many other problems in the nervous system.
I live in Segunbagicha area in Dhaka. There are two buildings under construction near our building. In one plot they are doing piling works and tiles-fitting is going on in the other building. I can't read, sleep, or even watch television or work with computer. I know that noise is an inescapable part of modern life but at least at night we can have some respite from this!
