On behalf of the villagers of Napne (located near Vaibhavwadi Railway Station, Sindhudurga) as an apprehension to the life of residents living in hazardous situation, we are compelled to lodge a complaint regarding Mobile Base Station Tower in middle of residential area.
Certain aspects we shall put forth for your kind reference:
1. As a general rule, Mobile Tower Station has to be installed at least 150-300 meters away from the residential area, but in this case the concerned authorities while allowing to setup huge cluster of mobile network base station have violated the said norm by erecting the tower right in the middle of residential area. The harmful radiation been emitted from the said Mobile Tower are causing several serious effects on the health of villagers and are also acting as slow poison to human lives too. People living within 50-300 meter radius are in the high radiation zone and are more prone to ill-effects of electromagnetic radiation.
2. The electromagnetic rays are harmful in nature and are bound to cause serious damage to all and particularly infants, pregnant women and senior citizens are prone to serious illness. These health hazards could aggravate and there can’t be denial of the fact that this shall also lead to life-threatening diseases such as brain hemorrhage, cancer, etc.
3. In general scenario many people including several buildings, societies have objected and are refusing to setup the Mobile Tower at their premises considering the known harmful effects. Although some for the greed of money have ignorantly enabled to setup such a harmful radiating tower within the touching distance of children’s and all others residing in the village.
4. Article-21 of the Indian Constitution states that Right to clean environment is a guaranteed fundamental right. Life, public health and ecology have priority over unemployment and loss of revenue. This can be easily proven from the current scenario of COVID-19 Pandemic where the Government has taken measures of lockdown to curtail the health issues of corona-virus.
Considering the gravity of the above-mentioned situation, we request you to take immediate action in stopping these harmful radiations and furthermore in relocating the Mobile Base Station Tower outside the ambit of the residential village premises.
Kindly do the needful and oblige. Shall be grateful for your prompt reply.
