infront of home Car garage creating Noise pollution infront of home Car garage creating Noise pollution

Hi, our house situated in town and on a major road. The house is surrounded by residential houses but recently (less than month) a car service center has been built next to the apartment. Both the apartment and car service center are adjacent to the main road.

The issue is that the car service center uses air and hammering noise and loud metal sound creating after denting which produces a lot of noise and the residents are not able to bear that noise even with their house windows/balcony doors closed.
One big issue regard with Car owner is Political background and I'm currently student and this noise disturbed my hole day schedule I hope any one solve this issue or guide me in brief.

The residents have gone to the service center en masse multiple times with the noise complain. The service center management was listening to us earlier and have given us assurance that they will do something about the noise but lately they have been very blatant in ignoring our complains and carrying their day to day noisy business.

We are finding ourselves very helpless so as what to do next.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Legal Counsel Vidhikarya

A.Dear Client,
Since this is a commercial activity in the residential area a mass complaint with the Municipal corporation can be lodged to resolve the Grievance. You can file a complaint before the Pollution Control Board of your City. You can file a complaint before the DM or SDM for carrying out commercial activities in a residential area causing public nuisance. Apart from this, you may file a criminal suit against the owner of the car service center under Sec. 268 IPC for public nuisance. Chapter IV of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 deals with offenses relating to public health, safety, decency, convenience, and morals under Sections 268, 269, 270, 279, 280, 287, 288, 290, 291, 294. Public Nuisance covers all types of pollution i.e. pollution of land, water, air, noise pollution etc. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps.
