I reside in Pune and it is true that the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is affecting the biological systems of human, birds and insects. According to the sources EMR may be used to reduce the population of animal and insects. It is recommended that the cell phone towers should not be installed near the wildlife area. It is said that before installing the tower they should consult with the forest department and also with the public.
