The New Norms for Towers which came into effect on September 1,2012 have made the radiation limit more stringent it from 9.2w/sqm to 0.92 w/sqm, a 10 fold decrease . It is lower than the US ( 12w/sqm ) and higher than China ( 0.4 w/sqm) and Russia ( 0.2 w/sqm ).
There are more or less 4.5 lakhs telecom towers in India of which 5% (around 22000 towers) don't meet new guide lines in India. Most of them are located in core areas of Delhi, Mumbai , Kolkata & Chennai and suburbs of Banglore , Hyderabad etc apart from other tier - 1 cities.
To achieve the new norms, telecom companies will manually decrease the power supplied to the towers which will bring down radiation levels. While this solves the compliance problem, it means the coverage area goes down and more towers will be needed to cover the same area.
Here I like to put a comment that by reducing the power level by 10 fold from 9.2 w/sqm. to 0.92 w/sqm, the cellular operators association of India (COAI ) have started to play their ill motive to harm environment in the name of coverage area of each tower will fall down & more towers mean your phone will search and switch between towers much more than before , leading to more call drops.
These cellular operators are looking their business interest not for public, still they will not bring high capacity of modern technology of highly mounted one which will be costly for all these cell operators, the obsolete technology of foreign countries being used in India . Even in future if Govt. again brings down the power at per with China , then what these cell operators will do ? These cell Operator Companies should leave IDEA of installing Cell towers on roof tops of Residential Buildings. The present Cell operators like to install more towers which is very objectionable idea that will automatically emit more radiation will soon create health hazards . The Govt. should direct these Cell operators to bring modern Technology from western Countries & they should visit how other countries are doing this business !!
