Subject:-Humble request to stop installation work in progress of internet/mobile tower by reliance telecom company. Respected Sir, I Neeraj Prakashchand Rana have complaint against the installation of internet/mobile tower at western tower near bisleri company andheri east mumbai 400099 by reliance telcomm company.I have made complaint in the BMC office but the action has not been taken yet. I am very upset and in tension.It is residential area.As you are aware that this will cause of nuisance and health hazard for the people living close to that area. We are deeply and heavily concerned on the health and environmental issues may arise from radioactive emission from the mobile/internet tower. As per the information gathered by us, a internet/mobile tower in a residential area may cause various health problems to the people specially childrens, elderly people & pregnant women in the vicinity. I would also like to highlight the effect of electromagnetic/micro wave radiations being emitted from the internet/mobile tower which is a big health hazard for the people living in the vicinity of the tower area. We are posed with serious health threat and death due to diseases like brain tumour/cancer, headache, pain in joints, miserable memory, concentration problem from the radiations of this tower and so are others nearby. It is a crowded area, very vulnerable and has a lot of children around. As per LATEST ADVISORY GUIDELINE issued by DEPTT. OF TELECOM. for state govt.s for issue of clearance for installation of mobile tower (effective from 01.08.2013) clearly says that- Number of antenna(e) Building/Structure safe distance from pointed in the same direction the antenna(e) at the same height (in meters) Number of antenna(e) Pointed in the same direction Building/Structure safe distance from the antenna(e) at the same height (in meters) 1 20 2 35 4 45 6 55 Besides these guidelines for installing of internet/mobile tower(BTS), there are some documents/clearance and certificates(undertaking) has to be submitted by the service provider to the concern govt. department like- I. Copy of relevant license / Infrastructure Provider Registration Certificate from Department of Telecommunications. II. Data Sheet a) Name of Service/Infrastructure Provider b) Location c) Tower Reference: i) Height, ii) Weight iii) Ground/Roof Top iv) Pole/wall mounted v) Number of antennae III. Copy of SACFA clearance / copy of SACFA application for the said location submitted to WPC wing of DoT with registration number asWPC acknowledgement along with undertaking that in case of any objection/ rejection, TSPs/ IPs will take corrective actions / remove the tower. IV. Copy of structural stability certificate for ground based tower. In case of roof top BTS towers, structural stability certificate for the building and tower based on written approvals of any authorized Structural Engineer of state/local bodies/Central Building Research Institute (CBRI), Roorkee/ IIT/NIT or any other agency authorized by local body. V. Copy of the type test certificate issued by Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) to the manufacturers of the Diesel Generator (DG) Sets Vi. Acknowledgement receipt issued by TERM Cells (DoT) of the self-certificate submitted by Telecom Service Provider/ Infrastructure Provider in respect of mobile tower/ BTS (ground based/ roof top/ Pole/ wall mounted) in the format as prescribed by TEC, DoT, establishing / certifying that all General Public areas around the tower will be within safe EMR exposure limit as per peak traffic measurement after the antennae starts radiating. This is injustice and may become the major cause of illness/serious damage to our body and insists us to take any legal action against this type of illegal activities because this residential area is quite populated. We would request you to take immediate action to stop the erection of this tower to protect us from this dreadful ordeal and loss of life as it is illegal. Yours faithfully Neeraj Rana [protected]
