It was intolerable. Continuous pesky calls from many companies, business concerns etc. as part of their advertisement strategy. I used to get at least four-five every day, which was a nuisance. Now it has been reduced to a random one or two in a week.
Today newspaper reports indicates that actually the pesky calls have come down because of the stern action taken by the TRAI. According to statement of the TRAI Advisor A.Robert Jerard Ravi, as reported in the press, more than Rs. 2.15 crore penalty was imposed on the guilty telemarketers in the last four months alone and the pesky calls have come down to about 11,000 from the earlier 50,000 a month. It is reported that about 9 lakh telecom resources were also disconnected.
So far so good. But this menace of pesky calls have to be put down. Zero Tolerance in this matter is required.
