As an Issue, Indian multinational telecommunications service company Bharti Airtel Limited said that call drops in their network is due to the lack of mobile towers and there is an urgent requirement to clear misinformation about radiation.
The CEO of company Gopal Vittal said that “we have only 117 sites for mobile towers in Delhi Lutyens area, but we need 217, so both spectrum and more sites for towers are required”.
