Truth be told, the standards set by India are much lower than the universally embraced suggestions of the International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which represent thermal and non-thermal impacts, said a report put together by a 13-member advisory board constituted by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) based on an Allahabad High Court request dated January 10, 2012.

The report categorically states ,”no definitive proof has been found on negative effects on human health by EMF radiation from mobiles or network towers by the World Health Organization (WHO)… (and) in as much as EMF radiation power levels in the region of base stations of cell phone towers are underneath as far as possible, there is no reason to be worried about the dangerous effects of radiation on humans which are living close to them”.

Shripad Naik, Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, addressed the media in April 2015 and clarified, “The Indian Council of Medical Research, the pinnacle body in India for the detailing, coordination and advancement of biomedical research, elucidated that there is no experimental confirmation demonstrating using cell phones will bring about mental or physical ailment.”
