The technology itself has evolved and grown at an exponential pace. However, the health risks associated with it have also shown an upward trend. This paper starts with a basic introduction to the EMF radiation, how they are emitted through the cell towers and mobile phones. It then talks about the causes & sources of these health hazards, certain metrics like the safety distance & the statutory norms prevalent in different countries as contrast to India. The paper also reviews some of the already published results from different experiments and studies conducted in this domain across the world. Lastly, the paper draws some inference and conclude with basic precautions to reduce the adverse effects and recommendations to help reduce the levels of radiation in the environment. Key words: Mobile Technology, Health Hazards, Electromagnetic Radiation, Ionizing Radiation, Non- Ionizing Radiation, Safe Power Density, EMF Radiation Norms. Introduction In this paper, we analyzed the effect of electromagnetic radiation from mobile phone and mobile tower. Mobile phone technology has revolutionized the telecommunication sector throughout the world. Due to its several advantages, mobile phone technology has grown exponentially in the last three decades. Now in India, there are more than 93 crores connections, out of which 91 crores connections are wireless mobile phone and more than 5 lakhs mobile phone towers. All over the world, people have been debating about associated health risk due to electromagnetic radiation from mobile phone and mobile tower. Mobile phone and tower emit
