And also to them who cannot afford premium services. But these days BSNL and Railways and other such organizations are asked to do profitable business and make money for the government. Well, BSNL is not given spectrum for free but they have to pay the money equals to the highest bid price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That happens in case full and final bill is not paid. Whenever you close a postpaid account, you must inform them in writing and keep a receiving of it. You should also ask for a no dues slip after paying final bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spectrum is not something that is manufactured in some factory. Neither it is excavated out of the earth. It is natural wave available like air. Why should government sell it @ 11,485 cr per Mhz? Even if they justify that they must sell air, a government's own company bound for rendering essential services can ask for resources and capital from its owner. If government thinks that essential services like railways, post, telecom etc are baniyagiri and not their responsibility, they should shut down these 'shops'. There are enough baniyas in the market. Using other bands for 4G and 5G services, however, is possible provided those spectrum are 'liberalized'. Again it's only government that can liberalize the spectrum.

He is telling a blatant lie when he is claiming that BSNL is not having 800 Mhz spectrum. They had it, that too at throwaway prices, and surrendered it. Now they want 700 Mhz, a spectrum which has so far been exclusively used by the Armed forces, and expect the handset manufacturers to make handsets that support LTE at 700 Mhz and also expect the customers to buy them. Govt should completely withdraw from non-core sectors like telecom and concentrate of core sectors like Healthcare, defence and education.

There are different thought of schools that tells different things about what government should do and what it shouldn't. Many persons say that governments should do nothing. Everything should be done by private players. So, almost everything was privatized to gain 'quality service'. Good private schools charge lakhs of rupees per child. A private hospital charged Rs. 16 lakh to cure dengue. It is happening everywhere. Someone said that policing should be privatized. Local gundas can be given contract to maintain law and order in their respective areas. Another person suggested that we have so many private armies like Karni Sena, Shivasena and hundreds like these so they can protect our country if given responsibility. Well, there is no limit of it. Someday someone can say that when everything is being managed by these private rajas-maharajas, why do we need a public government? It should also be privatized . Or Associate Chamber of Commerce can make better rules than parliament. In a country like India, where not everyone is capable of paying Rs. 16 lakh for medical bills of private hospitals, governments has its responsibilities. Post, telecom and transport are also listed in the responsibilities of central government. There is co-existence of public sector and private sector to form a mixed economy. We have some maha ratna companies in public sector that are doing well. Edited November 26, 2017 by ajay16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have some maha ratna companies in public sector that are doing well. Health and Education are always primary responsibilities of Govt. I have recently traveled extensively in Tripura and found a large Govt hospital and a Govt high school every 15 km or so. It is the only State where Pvt hospitals are begging for business and Govt hospitals are bursting with patients. Transport, including building of roads and basic postal services are also definitely core sector. Defence can never be privatised. But telecom is no longer a core sector. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Today is the last day for voice to end Did your agent/retailer select the correct option ? viz:- R-GSM for GSM SIM and R-CDMA for CDMA to GSM/4G upgraded SIM. If so then your SIM should get activated by tomorrow (unless they have made error while entering data as when they were filling my online porting form they made mistakes twice while entering my number as well as while entering the port code which was corrected when I pointed them about the mistakes as I was watching carefully).

Good Luck !Rcom has laid more than 80% of their staff and seems the rest are overburdened else the message "waiting for response" makes no sense. Airtel guy was telling me that voice will work till 2nd as they have delayed the shutdown due to excessive overload. My only worry is rcom shd port my number before they shut down voice.
