The department of Telecom (DoT) plans to auction third generation (3G) spectrum in two phases—the first by 2008-end and the next after March, 2009. This is because the alternative network for the defence forces, which will result in vacation of radio frequencies for 3G, will be ready only by March, 2009.
This alternative network project was originally slated to be completed by mid-2006, and this marks the fifth time that the deadline has been extended.
