TRAI turns into deaf ears

[Technoglitch]

Net neutrality is the hottest topic of discussion in India for all Internet users. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India's (TRAI) submission of a consultation paper on "Regulatory Framework for OTT services" seeking views from the public triggerred a massive online protest across the nation. By the time the deadline to send responses ended on 24 April, support for net neutrality had spread like wildfire. People responded in large numbers and the telecom regulator received over 11 lakh emails demanding internet freedom. But they had to pay a heavy price for voicing their opposition to the regulator's proposal: their personal email addresses were out in public domain, along with their comments.

Now atleast govt should seek explanation from Khullar....

 

[Teufel]

It's hard to explain sometime whether government runs the country or a bunch of capitalist ? ! If they go in favor of telecom companies, then we are not living in a democracy or maybe our government is opening a new account in Swiss bank.

The govt requires the funding of corporates to run hence goes in whatever ways to suit them.

I heard that govt has already taken initiative to snatch net neutrality issue from TRAI and handed it over to DoT.

 

[Technoglitch]

so what would DoT do?

 

[IndianMascot]

They will try to work and meet our expectations.
