[Resolved]  Bangalore Development Authority — INSTALLING O[censored]NAUTHORIZED 4G TOWER ON RESIDENTIAL BUILDING AT EGIPURA

SIR

I AM A RESIDENT OF No: 12, 19TH A CROSS, EGIPURA, NEAR SREE RAMA TEMPLE, BANGALORE 560 047

MY NEIGHBOUR SHRI SURESH HAS CONSTRUCTED AN UNAUTHORISED 5 FLOOR BUILDING NEXT TO MY HOUSE WITHOUT ANY SET BACKS - WALL TO WALL - THE SITE AREA IS ABOUT 600 SQFT THE ROAD WIDTH IS HARDLY 2.5 TO 3 METRES

THE NORMAL BUILDING BYE LAW OF BANGALORE HAS NOT BEEN FOLLOWED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE RESIDENTS IN THE AREA

AS PER THE NORMS PRESCRIBED BY THE ODISSI GOVERNMENT A MINIMU MOF 3 METRES FROM THE STRUCTURE IS ESSENTIAL ON ALL THE SIDES OF THE BUILDING WHICH IS NOT DONE

THE MAIN REASON FOR THE COMPLAINT IS OVER AND OVER THE CONSTRUCTION O[censored]NAUTHORISED STRUCTURE HE HAS RAISED A 4G TOWER OF AN HEIGHT OF ABOUT 30 FEET ABOVE HIS ROOF TERRACE

THE HAS NOT TAKEN ANY NOC FROM THE NEIGHBOURS AND HAS ERECTED IN A DENSELY POPULATED RESIDENTIAL AREA WHERE ROADS IN EGIPURA ARE VERY NARROW AND SMALL

The tower as per the study from internet is highly Radioactive and has biological effects on the human body. The study has been made by various agencies copies of such report is attached for your information and favorable action. Brief such symptoms are as under :

1. Chronic Fatigue
2. Hyperactivity
3. Walking up between 3AM and 6 AM
4. Teeth grinding or tossing
5. Cramps in feet or calves
6. Hyperventilation
7. Palpitation
8. Stiffness
9. Rigid shoulder
10. High Blood pressure etc. etc.

When a human body is exposed to the electromagnetic radiation, it absorbs radiation, because human body contains 70% of liquid. It is similar to that of cooking in the microwave oven. The human height is much greater than the wavelength of the cell tower transmitting frequencies, so there will be multiple resonances in the body, which creates localized heating inside the body. This results in boils, drying up the fluids around eyes, brain, joints, heart, abdomen, etc

At night we have to relax and not receive more stimuli than in the daytime. A person, when sleeping, is estimated to be 200 to 400 times more sensitive to radiation or other stimuli. Make sure your bed and your children’s beds have no electrical sources in the vicinity. In other words: no electric blanket, no waterbed heating, no adjustable bed by means of electric motors (unplug), and no electrically powered clock radio. Put your mobile phone in another room, or even better switch it off. If necessary, purchase a small battery driven alarm clock.
If you live near an electricity substation, pylon or within one kilometer of a cellular tower, consider adaptation /protection or relocation if necessary if you are very sensitive and always tired.

Towering problem:House owners must get BDA sanction before permitting mobile towers to be erected on their premises.— FILE PHOTO: V. SREENIVASA MURTHY The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) has decided to issue notices to building owners who have allowed service providers to put up mobile towers without receiving proper permission. The authority’s decision followed a memorandum submitted to it by RTI activist B.M. Shivakumar where he expressed concern over the hazards of having mobile towers erected across the city.

As per the BDA rules, any person leasing out his or her terrace for the erection of a mobile towers needs to get BDA’s sanction for utilising residential space for commercial purposes.

BDA Commissioner T. Sham Bhat on Monday issued the order to the Town Planning Department seeking its report on the status of buildings where owners have erected unauthorised mobile towers.

In his order, Mr. Bhat stated that BDA must ensure that building owners who have not got the permission must be brought to book.

In his memorandum Mr. Shivakumar said the BDA (Allotment of Sites) Rules 1984 clearly stipulate that land allotted by the BDA for residential purposes cannot be diverted for commercial use without permission.

“Despite this, several house owners have gone ahead with leasing out the terrace space of their homes to erect these mobile towers,” he said.
