Vendors selling through loudspeakers create nuisance Street vendors with loudspeakers

The Issue

street vendors who mostly sell vegetables, fruits and random things have increased in number (mostly to cater to people who are afraid to go to markets and big shops). I would say it's a fair game, EXCEPT, all of them have a mini loudspeaker attached to their carts or scooters. These loudspeakers get pretty darn loud decibel levels are higher. Every morning from 6 am to 11 am my road is filled with these announcements from street vendors (some keep playing it in a loop) and this goes on for effing 3-4 hours without a break.

Due to reasons beyond my control, I am only able to sleep pretty late at night sometime after the night shift and these loudspeakers have drastically reduced my sleep quality to the point where I feel tired all day and also to work the next night


What exactly is my recourse here? I can't even register a complaint to my local police station. online classes and online meetings getting disturbed. 

I understand that these guys are trying to make a living and I don't want to condemn it, but using loudspeakers relentlessly every single day and doing it on repeat is a big nuisance.
