Gurugram, April 21 -- Police conducted raids at two nightclubs in Sector 61 and Sector 58 for allegedly playing loud music beyond permitted hours, officials said, adding that equipment was seized and legal notices issued to the owners. Officers said residents of multiple societies had complained about loud music continuing for several hours, especially on Friday and Saturday nights, disturbing sleep and causing inconvenience to children and the elderly. Police said teams led by Yashwant Yadav, assistant commissioner of police (Badshahpur), carried out back-to-back raids on Saturday night. During the drive, music systems, sound boxes, sound mixing equipment and a DJ mixer were seized from both locations, officers added. Sandeep Turan, public relations officer of Gurugram police, said teams found loud music being played after midnight with a large number of guests present. "The club owner in Sector 61 was asked to show if he had any permission or licence to play music to entertain guests even after 10pm, but he could not show anything. The same was the situation at the second club, Sector 58," he said. Turan said three music systems, four speakers and other equipment were seized. Owners were served notices under the Environment (Protection) Act and Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and will appear before an executive magistrate. Police said the sound systems and related equipment were seized under Section 10 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, which empowers authorised officers to enter premises, inspect, and seize equipment or material objects if there is reason to believe they may serve as evidence of an offence under the Act or its rules, or are required to prevent or mitigate environmental pollution, including noise pollution....
