Subject: IIT professors call cell tower rules safe - DARK MONDAY of IIT


Dear All,

Saw the Times of India coverage on Sep. 23, 2013, Page 5, which says:
IIT professors call cell tower rules safe, doctors advise caution
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/IIT-professors-call-cell-tower-rules-safe-doctors-advise-caution/articleshow/22906255.cms

I have attached the names of the IIT profs. and their report. At the
end of the report, they have themselves admitted that many faculty

members are working on the cell operators sponsored project. It
includes names of 3 profs. of IIT Bombay.

It is most shocking news for me and probably the darkest day in the

history of IIT. We will probably have to declare DARK MONDAY of IIT

I have recd. comments from the people, which I have reproduced below
without their names.

Comment 1
Good Morning Sir,
This will be really a dark day for all of us. Its quiet surprising to see
bias stand on the issue. Doctors are true and even your studies have
proven that how adverse effects
might be of radiation to all. Lets us all get to the root of this and see
what exactly is happening??

Keep me posted. Please feel free to ask me if any help needed.


Comment 2

Today's Times reports that 25 professors and research workers mainly from
various IITs have written an open letter  to Union Ministry of
Telecommunications and IT that
present cell tower radiation norms are safest and that there is no need to
change them !!

It is surprising that these professors have suddenly woken up to write an
unsolicited open letter to the govt.  Obviously they have written at the
behest of cell phone
companies and their lobby. They must have been handsomely paid for their
'consultancy services' by the telephone companies.

Comment 3
Dear Prof.Girish Kumar,
It is indeed shocking! I think the script of USA model  of doing business
i.e. Only Profit , is being played out here in India to the T. You must
have seen in the DVD (referring to Full Signal movie), how biilions were
paid to both the parties in USA . ANY WAY THIS SHOULD SPUR THE ACTVISTS
LIKE US TO MAKE MORE DETERMINED EFFORTS TO ENLIGHTEN THE PEOPLE AT LARGE.
with regards,
