According to Communications Ministry sources, the draft of the New Telecom Policy 2011 ( NTP 2011) will be released on Monday, 10th September 2011. Before finanlising the same, suggestions will be sought from all stake holders.
As I had mentioned earlier, the NTP 2011 will continue the process of giving all reliefs to the private telcos while withdrawing even the committed assurances to the PSUs BSNL and MTNL. The 2G scam has also seriously affected BSNL while certain private companies got the benefit.
Any comments on the draft policy can be sent so that I will be able to send another note to the Minister on the NTP 2011.
