Juhi Chawla moves Delhi HC over 5G technology citing threat of exposure to radiation
India Today
In a petition filed before the Delhi HC, actress-environmentalist Juhi Chawla has said that setting up 5G wireless networks could lead to 'permanent damage to all of the Earth's ecosystems'.
Actress-environmentalist Juhi Chawla Monday approached the Delhi High Court against the setting up of 5G wireless networks in the country, raising issues related to the radiation impact on citizens, animals, flora and fauna. Justice C Hari Shankar, before whom the matter came up for hearing, transferred the suit to another bench for hearing on June 2. Chawla said if the telecommunications industry's plans for 5G come to fruition, no person, no animal, no bird, no insect and no plant on Earth will be able to avoid exposure, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to levels of RF radiation that are 10x to 100x times greater than what exists today.More Related News
