    There are no set standard on electromagnetic waves in India unlike European Parliament and European Environment Agency.Apart from prevailing health hazard,none of the manufacturer as per Indian standard will ever mention the radiation level in the manuals.Surprisingly, there are no public litigation has ever filed by citizens of India questioning the Ministry of Information technology.As our markets are flooded with cheap ‘Make in China’ smartphone’ (which can even explode while talking) huge potential in the market is exploited the consumer rights.

    Every technology has some pro and cons.As an Indian we have always accepted the technology without studying the drawback.Where are all the sparrows gone once common to our household?Is the self question to asked.

    Nature is God gifted.People in the west shun the clothes to expose to the sun in beeches is very common for health benefit.The ‘Digital India’ has taken to the new level, even the privilege of fresh air,water and sun is numbered.
