Unfortunately, Indian telecom industry is considered one of highest growing market in world. But the Department of Telecommunication, in spite of having numerous Act,rules and regulations does not have any norms/regulation on tower construction.

Court decisions are equally unhelpful in this regard as there is no such provisions on which courts can rely upon.

You can do is to inquire with local municipal corporation to check if mobile company has obtained construction permission.

Further, this portal provides guidance about RTI related query, so you may want to post your query at Big Helpers where you can get suitable response.
