MUMBAI: Do not talk for more than six minutes a day on your cell phone to avoid radiation, IIT-Bombay and telecom sector experts said on Friday. The options are to put the phone on speaker mode and hold it at least a foot away from your body or use a headset. They suggested putting up a wire mesh or water curtains, or growing plants to prevent radiation from cell, TV or FM towers in the vicinity of 500 metres to one km.
