TRAI is nothing less than a sleeping beauty (I am hunting for the person who named it as a Telecom Watch Dog, may be you can call it a sick dog).. the DTH industry is expanding subscriber base at the rate of 2 million+ per annum & an inter-operable condition was supposed to be in the standarad licensing conditions prior to subscriber acquisition.TRAI is still only discussing inter-operable & yet to enforce / implement universal STB access (interoperable) rules after a subscriber count of well over 5 million +. More the delay more subscriber grows & DTH companies get lame excuses / reasons for not implementing interoperability citing reasons like STB upgradation costing 1000+ crores, subsidised stb BOXES, absence of technical guideliness of STB etc..Gandhiji's three monkeys (hear no evil, speak no evil, Talk no evil) finds a permanent berth in TRAI who boasts to be consumer friendly but eventually neither it is consumer friendly nor operator friendly.. why the hell do we require TRAI then? :wall::redface::madness:
