At last the DOT has issued orders to the private operators to immediately terminate the 3G connections in those circles where they do not have licence and is roaming on agreement with other private companies who got licence there. Bharti Airtel, Vodafone and Idea Cellular have been asked to terminate the services immediately.

As expected the private companies have opposed the termination and have approached TDSAT for cancellation of the DOT orders. The appeal states that this cancellation will give a wrong signal to the business  community. It seems that they want the Court should give them permission to give service illegally?  In the capitalist society the corporates can demand anything from the government, even resort to irregular and illegal activities and try to justify it?

As I have pointed out earlier the licence should be cancelled, the specrtrum taken back and penalty imposed onthe erring operators. Nothing less than this.
