The senior BJP leader was carrying the landline-receiver in order to safeguard himself from the harmful radiation released by mobile phones.
Javedkar was clicked with the landline-receiver by the photo-journalists waiting outside the Parliament and the images soon became viral on the internet.
Though he willingly allowed the press photographers to click his pictures, he did not specify why he was carrying the fancy prop.
This comes in the light of concerns that radiation from cell phones or mobiles may cause serious health problems and even cause cancer. However, no major research so far has categorically stated that low levels of radiation emitted from cell phones pose a serious threat to the human body.
The Department of Public Health, California, recently issued fresh guidelines on cell phone radiation, cautioning it may be dangerous.
