hovs 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 Hello everybody, I want to know the precise source where Government of India has issued directives to cellular operators for verifying the address and identity proof docs before activation of the handset. What action can be taken against the companies indulging in activation of handsets without verifying or even receiving these docs. Whether connections once activated can be de-activated on account of the above deficiency. I tried to search for previous posts on the subject for a few minutes but could not get a precise result. Hope someone here knows them and posts it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted February 12, 2007 The directive is from Department of Telecommunications. COAI and AUSPI have together formed an entity called Apex Advisory Council for Telecom in India (ACT) to oversee this directive now as there were complaints from the Government that address verification is not being followed correctly. Check out this document for more information on the directive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An Active Connection can also be Deactivated if the User dont submit Relavant Document for Identity Proof and Address Proof. Keep Acknowledgement of Each Letter and Document U submit to TELCO.
