Are Cell towers really harmful? Or are you falling prey to a carefully thought out conspiracy? Let us explore the truth.

1. CANCER!
The Fear, the Lies and the Conspiracy
behind
Cell Tower Radiation

2. What is this all about?
Ex IIT professor Girish Kumar and his daughter Neha
Kumar campaigning against cell towers.

3. What is this all about?
•Rajasthan High Court ruled in favour of two senior
citizen's petition of banning cell towers near schools
and hospitals
•The verdict received a mixed reaction among people

4. Who Supported the verdict

5. Who Supported the verdict

6. Who did not support the verdict

7. Fear and Panic Followed
Stories with barely any scientific proof
began doing the rounds.

8. Fear and Panic Followed
People began to blame
cell towers for any and
every unexplained
phenomena

9. Actress Juhi Chawla’s Involvement
•Claims that her building at Malabar Hill in South Mumbai, is
subjected to high levels of radiation from cell phone towers
•Says that according to an independent study by Prof. Girish
Kumar, the radiation levels in her neighbourhood stand at a
dangerous level of 25 Megawatts

10. So what is the
TRUTH?

11. The TRUTH
•Cell phone towers emit RF waves, which, unlike
Microwaves, are harmless, and incapable of causing any
damage to humans
•Juhi Chawla's claim has been investigated by none other than
fraudulent & tainted Professor Girish Kumar, whose own motives
have been questioned by everyone in government & civil society

12. The TRUTH
•Juhi’s husband Jay Mehta has business interests in Wilcom
Technologies and Salora International
•Wilcom is owned by Neha, Girish Kumar’s daughter
•These companies deal with anti-radiation products and
supposedly low radiation cell-phones

15. Questions to JUHI CHAWLA
•If you are so concerned about safety of your children, why didn’t
you move to a “safer” area?
•Have you stopped using cell phones yourself?

16. Questions to JUHI CHAWLA
•Where do you propose to relocate the cell towers that have been
removed from your building?
•Aren't the lives of other people's children equally important?

17. Questions to GIRISH KUMAR
•Your articles always say cell towers MAY be a risk to your life.
Aren’t you sure yet?
•You say radiation is carcinogenic. But people who have been
living under All India Radio towers for decades have not reported
any health problems. Why?

18. Questions to GIRISH KUMAR
•Cell phones are a recent invention. How did you find historical
data of long term health effects?
•Cell tower radiation is even less than that of household
appliances like microwave and radio. These have been around
for a longer time than mobiles. Shouldn’t we all have developed
health problems by now?

19. Conclusion
•There are no studies that confirm that cell tower radiation
causes cancer
•Fear spreads faster and hence you will find more negative
reports of cell tower radiation than positive
•Half of these so-called negative reports are propogated by
Girish Kumar and his allies with vested interests
•Citizens are therefore urged to conduct their own research
through reliable sources and then form an opinion
