Mobile base station radiation limit will be cut from September 1 [1]

The Centre has told Parliament that the exposure limit for radio frequency fields (base station emissions) will be brought down to one-tenth of the existing level from September 1.

This direction was to have been implemented from April 1. However, on an examination of the impact of the revised Electric and Magnetic Field (EMF) exposure limit on area coverage and exclusion zone, self-certification compliance with the new norms has been extended.
