Ministry of Communications, India, recently launched an initiative Tarang Sanchar which shares information on mobile towers and EMF compliance. This portal specifically allows the citizens of India to track the radiation levels emitted from the mobile towers in any particular area.

One can also check whether the electromagnetic field emission complies with the actual norms.

Union Telecom Minister (Minister of Communications), Manoj Sinha said in an official statement: “By the click of a button, information on the EMF compliance status of mobile towers can be accessed. Detailed information about any tower site, if requested, will be sent on email to the users. Additionally, any person can request for EMF emission measurement at a location by paying a nominal fee of Rs 4,000 online.”

He also added saying that this portal would probably clear the “myths and misconceptions” about mobile towers and the emissions from them.

In an often circulated news that mobile towers caused ill health issues, the minister clarified saying that “Such radiation has no adverse impact on human health. During the last 30 years, the WHO has conducted some 25,000 campaigns on this subject, and has never stated that mobile tower radiation has an adverse impact on human health.”

These requested tests are been conducted by TERM (Telecom Enforcement Resource and Monitoring) which is a field unit of DoT and the reports will be provided on request.

Well, this is indeed a great initiative led by the Indian government.

Dunzo Gets Breather as NCLT Rejects Insolvency Petition from Invoice Discounters

Dunzo

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Bengaluru bench has dismissed an insolvency plea filed against quick commerce startup Dunzo by its invoice discounters, declaring the petition “not maintainable” after several postponements. This decision offers temporary relief to Dunzo, which has been facing multiple insolvency petitions from various creditors, including Velvin Packaging Solutions and Betterplace Safety Solutions, over unpaid dues.

The invoice discounters alleged that Dunzo had paid only 50% of the required amounts, though the exact sum was not disclosed. Despite ongoing settlement talks, no resolution was reached, and the tribunal noted Dunzo’s delays in responding to creditor petitions. Dunzo continues to grapple with severe liquidity issues, delayed payments, and significant losses—reporting a ₹1,801.8 crore loss in FY23 and owing approximately ₹11.4 crore to major vendors like Google India and Facebook India.

While this NCLT ruling provides Dunzo some breathing room, the company still faces ongoing financial and operational challenges as it works to resolve its outstanding liabilities.
