Pune Dhol-Tasha Troupe Launches Anti-DJ Campaign
Imagine loud music at festivals that's so noisy, it can hurt your ears and disturb people.
Some people in Pune want to stop the loud music from DJs at festivals like Ganesh Chaturthi.
A group called Kalaawant Trust is collecting signatures to ask the government to ban these loud music systems.
They want to bring back traditional music with instruments like the dhol-tasha.
The government seems to agree, as they also want to reduce the number of loud DJs at festivals.
This is to make sure everyone can enjoy the celebrations peacefully and safely, while also keeping the traditions alive.
Kalaawant Trust launched a campaign for DJ-free festivals.
The campaign aims to curb noise pollution during festivals.
Nearly 3,000 signatures have been collected.
The memorandum will be submitted to the Maharashtra Chief Minister.
The government's approach aligns with citizens' demand for DJ-free festivals.
