Abstract :

The paper discusses the findings of a primary survey carried out to observe distribution of mobile phone towers and mobile phones in rural and urban areas of western Rajasthan . Mobile has now become as an integral part of our daily life due to which the number of mobile users have been increasing day by day . In India, mobile base stations and their installation are irregular and unregulated. Many studies have been carried out which proves that electromagnetic radiations emitted by mobile phone and mobile phone towers are harmful for the health of human beings. The ongoing use of mobile phones and installation of mobile towers has raised the health effects on humans more in urban than rural areas due to low economic group found in rural areas as compared to urban areas of western Rajasthan. This study is done for the people living in both urban and rural areas who are not aware about these radiations. This study reveals , that electromagnetic radiation emitted by mobile phone and mobile phone towers are harmful for the health of people who are living close to the mobile phone towers, so people should stay away from the mobile phone towers and people should use the mobile phone for less duration of time.
