Indiscriminate honking is abuse. Nevertheless in India we love to honk. But our love for honking causes noise pollution, and noise pollution has been proved to increase hyper-tension, blood pressure, stress hormones, increased risk of heart attacks and disturbed sleep patterns.
The horn is essentially an alert system that is part of the safety features of a car. True Indian roads are chaotic but does that justify the amount we honk? Or has our excessive honking become part of our driving experience, simply a habit.
