Concerned at radiation, Ministry asks DoT not to allow overlapping mobile towers
...
The advisory was issued by the Ministry after it received the report of an expert committee set up two years ago to study the possible impacts of the half a million strong network of communication towers on wildlife, including birds and bees.
There has been widespread concern that radiation from such towers is responsible for the declining population of birds such as sparrows, and bees which are vital for the pollination of many plant species and hence a key part of both agricultural economy and natural ecosystems.
....
The Forest Department must be consulted before any towers are installed near zoos or any wildlife protected zones.
The Indian standard on safe limits of exposure must be urgently refined, added the Ministry.
