Telecommunications companies worldwide, with the support of Governments, are poised within the next few years (or months !) to roll out the 5th-generation wireless network (5G). This is set to deliver what is acknowledged to be unprecedented societal change on a global scale. Every person on Earth is assured to have instant access to super-high-speed, low-latency wireless communications from any point on the planet, even in rainforests, mid-ocean and the Antarctic. This has left Bollywood actor Juhi Chawla upset.
India has also entered the ‘5G Race’ in an effort to flaunt its advancements and achievements in the field of technology and digital communication. However, the urge to compete in this race has somewhat distracted our Nation from taking into due consideration some alarming factors to the health of present and future generations.
‘𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐫𝐮𝐧 , 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐝𝐞, 𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐉𝐮𝐡𝐢 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐰𝐥𝐚. If the telecommunications industry’s plans for 5G come to fruition, no person, no animal, no bird, no insect and no plant on Earth will be able to avoid exposure, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to levels of RF radiation that are 10x to 100x times greater than what exists today. These 5G plans threaten to provoke serious, irreversible effects on humans and permanent damage to all of the Earth’s ecosystems.
The accumulated clinical evidence of sick and injured human beings, coupled with experimental evidence of damage to DNA, cells and organ systems in a wide variety of plants and animals, further coupled with epidemiological evidence which supports the conclusion that the major diseases of modern civilization – cancer, heart disease and diabetes – are, in large part, caused by electromagnetic pollution, stems from a literature-base comprising of over 10,000 (ten thousand) peer-reviewed studies, a number much, much, much too large to be ignored.
On enquiring from the Ministry of Telecommunications, Government of India, we were informed in writing from Science and Engineering Research Board vide reply under the RTI Act dated 29-03-2019 that, “𝙉𝙤 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙙𝙞𝙚𝙨 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙮 𝙎𝙀𝙍𝘽 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙤𝙛 2𝙂, 3𝙂, 5𝙂 𝙖𝙣𝙙 5𝙂 𝙘𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙧 𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙝𝙣𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙜𝙞𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙣 𝙝𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙨, 𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙡𝙨, 𝙗𝙞𝙧𝙙𝙨, 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙤𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙢𝙨.”
Juhi Chawla shares, “We are not against the implementation of technological advancements. On the contrary, we enjoy using the latest products that the world of technology has to offer, including in the field of wireless communications. However, whilst using the latter kind of devices, we are in a constant dilemma, because after doing our own research and studies regarding the RF radiation from wirefree gadgets and network cell towers, we have sufficient reason to believe that the radiation is extremely harmful and injurious to the health and safety of the people.”
