Hint: A Resident Welfare Association (RWA) is an association body that represents interest of people living in a community or a society. The major function of this association is taking care of day-to-day problems of the residents, organising events, managing facilities in the apartments and complexes and safeguarding the rights of the unit holders.

Complete Answer:
A Resident Welfare Association (RWA) is a vital part of modern-day societies.
Hundreds and thousands of families living together in societies so it is important to have a body for time-to-time maintenance of the society, resolving problems of the members, and handling the environment issue of that area.

Correct answer:
a. Mobile towers release harmful radiation and cause harmful effects to the environment. By this harmful radiation not only humans but other organisms like plants, birds, fishes, terrestrial animals all are affected. These radiations have rays which burn the body of the birds which leads to the death of birds and extinction of bird species. That is why RWA refused to build the mobile tower to save the house of sparrow.

b. The value shown by RWA is saving the birds from harmful effects of radiation and safe keeping the environment.

Note: There are seven members of the resident's welfare association: President: One, Vice-President: One, General Secretary: One, Secretary: One, Treasurer: One, Finance Advisor: One, and Executive Members. Normally this association is a group of members which are elected by the society residents. The elected members have to register under the Societies Registration Act, 1860.
