NEW DELHI: Confirming the worst fears of mobile phone users all over the world, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has warned that radiation from cell phones is possibly cancerous. It has classified the radio frequency electro-magnetic fields as “possibly carcinogenic to humans, based on an increased risk for glioma – a malignant type of brain cancer – associated with wireless phone use”.
The number of mobile phone users globally is estimated to be 5 billion and over the past few years there has been mounting concern about the possibility of adverse health effects resulting from exposure to radio frequency electro-magnetic fields such as those emitted by wireless communication devices.

Now a study conducted by WHO and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has placed cell phones on a par with the carcinogenic hazards category as lead, engine exhaust and chloroform.
