Abstract: Noise is sound considered unpleasant, loud and disruptive to hearing. Noise pollution affects the health and daily work of humans. The present study is to determine the effects on students’ life due to noise pollution in metropolitan cities. A fuzzy model was constructed to analyze how the students are affected in these 7 metropolitan cities, Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Lucknow, Kolkata, Hyderabad, and Bangalore, due to noise pollution like traffic noise, construction noise etc.  It has been

shown that the level of noise pollution is highest in Chennai, followed by Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Delhi and Lucknow respectively in the year 2017. The obtained results are compatible with the scenario of health issues caused by noise pollution faced by students in these areas.

Keywords: Noise level, metropolitan cities, noise pollution, membership function, linguistic variable.
