Environment Advisor Syeda Rizwana Hasan has suggested designating 10 additional roads in Dhaka as silent zones to help curb pollution. Speaking at an event on Monday, she noted that these roads would be declared horn-free in January of 2025, according to bdnews24.com. The advisor to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change said, “Necessary laws will be amended to make the country horn-free. Other quiet zones in the capital include the Secretariat, Agargaon, the parliament, and the Prime Minister's Office.
