The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has initiated a ‘prospective cohort study’ in Delhi and the NCT to study the adverse effects of the Radio Frequency Radiation emitted by cell phones and the relay towers used by the mobile service providers.

This was revealed in a report submitted by the ICMR following a directive from the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

In fact, the move by the ministry came in the wake of a petition filed before the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) highlighting the failure of the government in protecting the health of the citizens residing in the vicinity of the mobile towers.

According to the petitioner, studies conducted in foreign countries had found that even low levels of radiation resulted in damage to the cell tissue and the DNA. It has also been linked to the onset of various forms of cancer, brain tumours, suppressed immune function, mental depression, miscarriage in pregnant women, Alzheimer’s disease and a number other serious illnesses. Hence, the petitioner sought the NHRC’s directive to the Centre to constitute a panel to study the health and environmental hazards caused by radiation from the mobile towers.

Recently, the Delhi High Court had issued notices to the Centre and the State of Delhi on a petition seeking to ban the high frequency mobile phone towers in residential areas as they were causing health hazards.

Justice Rajiv Shakdher had sought a response from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), the Chief Secretary of the Delhi government and a leading mobile service provider by Jan 14 next year.

The HC order came on a petition filed by Ramnath Garg, who lost his 30-year-old son to cancer, which was allegedly caused by mobile tower radiation. Garg had sought a ban on erecting high frequency mobile phone towers within a 50-metre radius of schools, hospitals and residential localities.

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday sought the view of the Delhi Government and the Centre on a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking a ban on the installation of cell phone towers on residential buildings. The The PIL, based on reports published in the Hindustan Times on the health hazards posed by such towers, also sought urgent steps to reduce the radiation emitted by the towers.
Delhi government, Union health ministry and the department of telecommunication have been asked to file their replies by August 9.

Petitioners Sugriva Dubey and Namita Roy sought a direction for implementation of the Prime Minister-headed Inter Ministerial Committee’s recommendations on the issue. The committee had suggested to reduce the radiation to 450 mw/sqm but, the PIL argued, the government did not implement it.

The bench asked the Centre to file the report of the inter-ministerial committee and its suggestions on the issue by the next date of hearing.

“”The common man is being kept in dark and the effect of mobile towers is not being brought to the knowledge of the residents of the locality where the towers have been installed and hence, a large number of persons are being exposed to diseases such as cancer,”" Dubey argued.

According to the petition, “”The radiation values and norms in other countries are more stringent and the radiation levels allowed through such towers is much lower but in our country there are no separate rules or norms for residential areas, schools, offices, hospitals and play grounds to prevent exposure to radiation.”"
