Yesterday ( on 3rd June ), we had a meeting with CM Arvind Kejriwal on the Delhi Budget. Keeping in mind the worsening situation of Delhi on the Pollution front, our first three demands ( out of 13 ), were absolutely related to the Pollution as well Radiation from Mobile Towers & the UV Index, as below :
1. The invisible danger of UV Index has reached Delhi . Though our Experts say its around 8 presently, all the foreign
institutes have mentioned, that, its 11 plus in Delhi . Therefore, we require UV Index monitoring system in Delhi with Alarms to save the lives of scores of residents.
2. Delhi has become
the most polluted city of the world
& therefore, Pollution monitoring systems must be
installed in every assembly seat to keep on
tracking the pollution levels regularly. These monitoring systems must be under
the direct control of committees of local RWAs, so that, any warning issues
could be raised immediately.
3. Radiation from Mobile Towers is also a cause of concern & various RWAs are regularly
raising the issue. Govt must do routine checks of various
mobile towers & its reports must be uploaded on the Delhi Govt websites.
Moreover, there must be no charges
for checking the radiation levels of any mobile tower in the city, if forwarded
by any of the registered RWAs.
We can just hope that most of the points out of our 13 demands will be accepted & approved for budget allocation for Delhi. Let's see what comes out on the Budget day.
With best regards,
