Telecom Commission firms its views on limited mobilityThe full Telecom Commission on Wednesday firmed its views on the controversial issue of allowing limited mobility on basic telephones at its meeting in New Delhi and a formal announcement on the issue is likely to be made on Thursday. "The Telecom Commission has taken a view on the subject of allowing basic services operators to offer limited mobility to customers," Shyamal Ghosh, chairman of Telecom Commission and secretary, Department of Telecommunications said. The commission's views on the recommendations of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India on limited mobility would be forwarded to Communications Minister Ram Vilas Paswan. He, however, declined to divulge details on the commission's final decision with regard to various recommendations. A final announcement on the government's decision is likely to be made on Thursday. TRAI on January 8 had forwarded its recommendations on the controversial issue of allowing basic operators to provide limited mobility to subscribers to the Department of Telecommunication. In its recommendations, the regulator had suggested that the government should allow limited mobility on basic telephones within the local area with Rs 1.20 tariff for a three-minute call.
