Yes. The Noise Rules, 2000 put restriction on the use of loud speakers/public address system and the same cannot be used without written permission.
 
The loudspeakers/public address system/sound producing instruments/musical instruments cannot be used during night time except in closed premises for communication like auditoria, conference room, community halls, banquet halls or during public emergency.
 
Only on or during any cultural or religious festival of a limited duration not exceeding 15 days, the State Government may permit the use of loudspeaker/public address system during the night time between 10:00 pm to 12:00 midnight only.
