Dear Juhi,
my my, relax.... why so jumpy when you see people at my house or front
yard these days?
Might I suggest that you improve communication lines with your own
sister Juhi ? when your sister came with the police some time ago (when
the pit was still open) and asked them to stop work. _she requested
venas_ to clear the pathway _even if the work was stopped _so the
Araujos ( our side neighbour) could use it.
besides don't you think that its _in the best interests of the
community_ if we clear a public access way and nallah besides rebuilding
a bridge which incidentally my grandfather built with his own hands 60
years ago just adjacent to the side of the "mobile tower"

Speaking of court orders - the sessions ruled earlier today that all
work at the tower site be stopped immediately from 11:30 am. While
passing though at 4 pm, I saw workers still working at the site.
Clearly A CONTEMPT OF COURT! It apparently took Lucas to come down to
site to get the work stopped.
The tower team should steer clear of further contempt of court and
STOP ALL WORK AT THE SITE. Clearly their claims of legality remain
questionable!

Dear Sonali,
If I am not mistaken, I was given to understand that the High
Court order was later stayed by the Supreme Court( (I read a news
article
about this in the Navhind Times last month) on a petition moved by
the collective forum of mobile service providers...!
However this observation of the judges/judgement, quote "*//**/The
High Court had only recently ruled the government would be duty
bound to inform the public living where a mobile tower was to be
erected about the “amount of radiation it will emit” and its
harmful effects thereof on the health of people/*....*that it was
the duty of the government and mobile companies to inform
residents about the harmful effects....*
*"It will be the duty of the local authorities to issue a public
notice for information of all concerned where the permission for
erection of a tower is being considered or granted to apprise the
public as to what amount of radiation it will emit and the effect
thereof on the health of the people living in the area," *
*The information would have to be supplied in the shape of a
public notice before the mobile tower was erected. The HC also
directed the companies installing mobile towers to do the
same...." *unquote, is very interesting, and gives a huge boost
to all those protesting the present proposed tower and its location.

I was one of the people present at Ashley's for the
presentation referred to. Most others and myself were not
convinced about the claims of safety.
There is no shortage of information that can we found on the
net, as we all know. It is convenient to cull out facts that
favour the viewpoint that one is trying to push.
However, most data we have encountered, seems to lean towards
the /dangerous radiation/ aspect, and there is absolutely no
data assuring "NO HEALTH HAZARDS" . Appending here an article
announcing a recent High Court judgement in Punjab. I am sure
all cellular companies and tower builders must have presented
every possible statistic, and yet the verdict is clear. It is
only a matter of time before this becomes a regulation.
'Safety' is a relative term, who is to finally check on a
regular basis on ground realities? The multi-operator tower is
to be rented out to several providers, who is to keep tabs on
the technology, emissions etc by each?
Lastly, finding an alternate site is not the responsibility of
other villagers.

*No mobile towers in residential areas: HC
Saurabh Malik
Tribune News Service*
Chandigarh, February 13
Mobile towers may soon be phased out of Chandigarh’s
residential areas. Dealing with the towering problem, the
Punjab and Haryana High Court, in a significant development,
today made it clear that it wanted the mobile towers to be
shifted out of residential areas in phases.
As a bunch of petition seeking the removal of mobile towers
from city’s residential areas came up for hearing this
afternoon, the Bench headed by Justice MM Kumar directed the
Chandigarh Administration to formulate a policy for their
shifting in a phased manner.
In what could ring in difficulties for mobile service
providers, the Bench also set a two-month deadline for the
Chandigarh Administration to come up with the policy. The
development was significant as there were not less than 18
towers in Chandigarh and its villages.
Expressing concern over the effects of radiation,
Making it clear that "there is no absolute right to carry on
any business, the Bench ruled that it (business) is subject to
reasonable restriction and regulation", and highlighted the
damage being caused due to the radiation.
read the judgement.
The High Court held, "The mobile emit signals in the form of
radio waves. It is feared that radio waves can cause changes
to the cells in our brain. If the DNA in the brain cells gets
damaged, they may become cancerous and cause brain tumours. It
is also feared that radio waves can alter chemical and
electrical reactions in our brain, changing, in effect, the
way the brain cells communicate. Studies conducted have
revealed that sparrows have declined in the most contaminated
electromagnetic fields".

Dear Saligaonetters
Pardon the large attachment to this email, I am enclosing
a 31 slide presentation as a PDF file which Cyril, Gerard
(my dad) , myself and Venas jointly gave to a small group
of immediate neighbours for the Dialogue. /unfortunately,
this was never explained to the public at large by those
who attended this session as was expected from them. /the
presentation attached contains some more detail since that
day to make it self explanatory.
At another informal meeting (which I personally was not
present for) at the panchayat office in the morning a day
or two after the Gramsabha, I was told that the following
decision was reached. IF they (the villagers) can find a
suitable site in saligao that fits with all the operator
requirements and IF it satisfies all other requirements by
law ; and IF the neighbours agree/; then and only then
will the tower shift/ after consultation with all 3
members of the present "tower team". /till such a site is
found, it will continue to reside at its present
location/. I was told that the present people (a sizable
number) included Gladstone, Diago, Austy, Mario Silu,
Gordon and a few others including Cyril and Venas.
this condition was agreed by All present because as Cyril
told them - "if we stop work at this site - you will not
help us in searching for an alternate site and you will
say "baba my work is done - I got the tower stopped". when
the tower is up - it will remind you to search for an
alternate site". It was on this basis that the "Dialogue"
planned with Marjorie with the general public on the
weekend was dropped.
After speaking with people around, and from the mails that
have been put out, one can conclude that these "facts"
were again not communicated to the people of saligao. one
can only hope that, more does not remain hidden.
Saligao villagers have remained without a tower for 12
years! while other villages / cities progress.
I personally find it Ironic that some of the people
"protesting" against this tower for whatever reason,
forget that they have towers on their own business
properties; and some have now come forward offering
theirs. A typical NIMBY (not in my backyard) approach?.
