Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad has taken over as the new Communications Minister. He is a Senior Advocate in Supreme Court and is a spokesman of BJP. He is an M.P.in Rajya Sabha since 2000 and has been a Cabinet Minister in the Vajpayee Government. He is spoken of as a very capable administrator.

We Heartily Congratulate him in his new assignment and welcome him to the Communications and Telecom Family. We hope that he will help in improving and strengthening the BSNL and its services.
