Actor Ramya Complains of Late-Night Loud Music and Crackers in Bengaluru

#national #brief

Kannada actor Ramya complained on social media about public inconvenience caused by celebrations involving loud music and firecrackers through the night in east Bengaluru. Ms. Ramya stated that an amusement park near Jayamahal Road was bursting crackers and blasting music at around 3 a.m. She noted that the Supreme Court prohibits bursting crackers between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. and restricts loudspeakers past midnight.

A police officer clarified that the crackers were burst near the historical Dasara Ground where local residents traditionally celebrate the festival. Ms. Ramya emphasized that celebrations should respect nearby hospitals, senior citizens, and children. The Supreme Court has previously urged a balance between religious sentiments and public health regarding firecracker restrictions.

Editor's note: The brief effectively summarizes the actor's complaint and the police response, though it includes a slightly specific date/timeframe for the complaint that is accurate to the source.
