Religion has been a major topic of concern for everyone, specially in our country. India is home to various religions and one of them is Islam. Being one of the biggest religions of the world, Islam takes pride in calling itself a minority in India. When it comes to religion, the constitution is so well moulded that you can do nothing about it. A major concern for every smart citizen is the loudspeakers used for religious ceremonies. And these loudspeakers are not just for Islam but all other religions.
You want it or not, you will be woken up by the sound of prayer (aka noise) coming from some religious institution. And it is not just about religion but also the concerts happening, DJs, Parties all these are noise for many in some form or the other. You simply don’t want to be forced to hear some unwanted noise.
People of various religions should understand that your prayer is soothing and music to your ears, not to the rest. Any form of loud music disturbing others should be banned. Oh oh wait it is, but no one bats an eye when it comes to religion. It is high time that authorities wake up and be vigilant about the non permissible use of loudspeakers.
And why you cannot rant about it Mr Sonu Nigam!
When a celebrity say something it becomes news and at times they say stuff with clear intention of hitting the headlines. Not sure why Sonu did that, but before doing this he needs to look at himself first. The man who started his career with Jagratas is now talking about noise pollution. Your concerts are not conducted in a soundproof hall. They happen in the middle of a public place. And they too are noise to many, no matter how great a singer you are sir. Your event organizers also uses loudspeakers, and I am sure they are way louder and bigger sound systems than those of religious ceremonies. For me Sonu Nigam talking about noise pollution of loud speakers is as stupid as seeing Salman Khan as the ambassador for “Drink & Drive, awareness campaign!”
I could certainly write thousand more words about it, but I think I have made my point, somebody with logical mindset would have understood. For others, even if I write another granth they won’t get the point.
This tweet of his got him the limelight..
God bless everyone. I’m not a Muslim and I have to be woken up by the Azaan in the morning. When will this forced religiousness end in India

And by the way Mohammed did not have electricity when he made Islam.. Why do I have to have this cacophony after Edison?

I don’t believe in any temple or gurudwara using electricity To wake up people who don’t follow the religion . Why then..? Honest? True?

Mixed Pulaav Of Twitter Reaction
So Sonu Nigam spoke against temples and gurudwara too, but libchoos are so desperate they are attacking him on Azaan tweet only.

I don’t expect any support to Sonu Nigam from any side. An athiest is of no use to political parties.

Why don’t Sonu Nigam make his whole house sound proof, plus he can use it to record songs too.#SonuNigam @sonunigam

Loudspeakers should be banned for any religious or social event in public places.Including weddings where your songs blare through the night https://t.co/5McMMq6eX2

Sonu Nigam….Can’t stand the Azaan in the morning for five minutes but can take a whole of Anu Malik singing in his ears 😀 😀

Don’t want to hear the Azaan at dawn, nor do I want to hear a Chikni Chameli tuned Ganesh Aarti at dusk. Ban ALL loudspeakering of religion. https://t.co/BVu1Nb6mKR

I think what @sonunigam means is your religion stops where my nose/ears/space begins.

While the irony is delicious, Sonu Nigam’s comment isn’t too bad. I would get mad as fuck hearing any loud noise wake me up everyday
— BalkarSidhu (@PanthicPolice) April 17, 2017
Sonu Nigam has raised his voice against the raised voice. Now liberals will defend saying ‘that’s their choice’.
— AstroNOT (@Stylebaaz) April 17, 2017
I am willing to sponsor a campaign against illegal blaring of Azaan and other prayers on loudspeakers. Suggest a creative hashtag.
