JAIPUR: The Rajasthan High Court has set a deadline of 10 days for the state government to formulate bylaws for governing the mobile phone towers. The court passed the order on Wednesday while hearing a public interest litigation (PIL) over the health hazards due radiation of these towers.
Within the same duration of next 10 days, the government would have to remove mobile phone towers installed on all school buildings and hospitals in the state. In addition to this, the government has to conduct a survey (also in 10 days) and tell the court about the number ofcancer patients who are living within the vicinity of cellphone towers. The government also has to form a medical board to examine and report on the conditions of Jaipur residents Pramod Kasliwal (53) and Sanjay Kasliwal (56) who are said to have developed cancer due to mobile tower radiations.
