On March 9, the board had issued a circular to all the mosques and ”dargahs” in the state not to use loudspeakers between 10 pm and 6 am, saying the ambient noise level around many mosques and mausoleums have “deleterious effects on human health and the psychological well-being of the people”.
Stating that the contents of its previous circular was misrepresented, Auqaf Board CEO Y M Mohammed Yousuff issued a fresh circular on Wednesday.
“The prohibition of usage of loudspeaker was misrepresented as prohibition for morning azan, which is not correct,” the CEO said.
