But industry"s rapid growth also has some harmful effects for both the human beings and the environment. So this article will provide you the information about the fast growing Indian cellular market and its harmful effects.
Let us discuss its growth at furious pace first; First of all, Indian mobile phone market has become an attractive destination for global mobile manufactures like Nokia, Samsung, LG, Apple Inc, HTC, Blackberry and Sony Ericson etc with their cheap dual-SIM handsets and smartphones.
Secondly, the next generation networks include IP technology, fiber optics, wi-fi and 3G networks by some of the famous service providers like Reliance Communications, Bharti Airtel, MTNL, Idea Cellular, Aircel Ltd, and Tata Indicom are also playing their role in the growth of Indian cellular market.

Most of them are unaware of the damage caused to the environment by harmful metals "Cadmium, Lead, Lithium, Nickel and Mercury" that can cause contamination of water and soil.
2.Evidence is mounting that the "Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) "badly affect our brains and central nervous system.
3.Moreover, Bluetooth devices expose the brain, ears and eyes to strong doses of wireless microwave radiations. Even, mobile phones send out a constant EM pulse in a two-way communication with the nearest tower.
4.Microwave radio emissions from cell phone towers increase free radicals and oxidative stress, lower glutathione (GSH) and lower cortical levels. Red blood cell aggregation, an abnormal condition impairs oxygen delivery and the removal of CO2 and this alone has vast consequences for cardiovascular health.
5.Cell phones damage chromosome and caused DNA breakage, formation of micro nuclei, and therefore, development of cancer.
