Policy on mobile towers in Mumbai to have citizens’ suggestions
After the protests by citizens on draft policy on the installation of mobile phone towers, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has decided to seek their suggestions for the same.
The draft policy, announced recently, got many bad remarks from the citizens. Due to which, the civic body has planned to include recommendations before it finalises the policy next month.
Residents of such properties in Mumbai were worried about the effects of radiation on health and had been campaigning for more stringent restrictions on the installation of mobile phone towers.
To fasten the whole process, BMC has uploaded the draft policy on its website and citizens have to download it to add suggestions.
Citizens can now download the policy from the civic body’s website and submit their suggestions as well as objections to the authority.
The policy will then be finalised by the building proposals department of the civic body by last week of February after considering all the recommendations and suggestions made by the public.
The last date to send in suggestions is February 22, 2013.
