STRINGENT MOBILE RADIATION NORMS


STRINGENT MOBILE RADIATION
There is a grave concern over high level of electromagnetic radiation from mobile towers and handsets. A high-level world ministerial committee has called for revision of radiation norms to suit world conditions and environment. It called for imposing strict restrictions on installation of mobile towers near high residential areas, schools, playgrounds, and hospitals. The committee has recommended the use of hand-free and ear phone technologies such as Bluetooth handsets and ear phone so as to minimize the contact of head with mobile phone. However, a number of studies  have reported the link between exposure to radio frequency radiation and occurrence of disorders in cells, DNA, immune system, hormones, and reproduction.
