Emission standards are more stringent in India, says official
The Department of Telecom (DoT) has tested 4,245 base tansceiver units (BTS)/ mobile towers of various telecom service providers (TSPs) between June 2020 and February 2021 and found 4,244 BTSs to be compliant with safety norms. “We have come across only one mobile tower slightly beyond the norms, which was also subsequently complied within the norms,” said Director Arvind Kumar on Tuesday.
