Abstract
The equivalent continuous noise level (Leq) was computed to evaluate the overall noise exposure, and the results were compared with standards prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board. The findings reveal that industrial zones recorded the highest noise levels (Leq ≈ 85 dB), followed by commercial zones (≈ 80 dB), while residential and silence zones also exceeded permissible limits.
