Despite clear direction from the TRAI to stop the summer special offers extended for more than 90 days to customers, Reliance Jio has given advertisements continuing the offer for more than 15 days.

Probably, Reliance Jio will be thinking that Modi government will not take any action against it, since  it was Prime Minister Modi’s photo that they put in their full page advertisements earlier.

TRAI and DOT should take serious action against the violation of rules by Reliance Jio, which has resulted in great loss to the government, in terms of licence fee to the extent of 30% as reported bt DOT to the Minister.

It is reported in Economic Times that Reliance Jio will register a loss of Rs 19,600 crore in 2017-18 and Rs 11,500 crore in 2018-19.

Jio has got about 100 million customers. It has got a deep pocket and  is trying with all the help from the government to ride over all other telecom companies. Once the other companies are put down, then the charges will be increased and the loss will be made up.

Of course, corporates have no respect for law and ethics. Profit is their only motive. And Reliance tops the list.

RAJKOT: Rajkot Municipal Corporation (RMC) has slapped a Rs one-crore ad hoc penalty on Reliance Jio Infocomm for misusing its permission for laying cables in the city.

RMC Commissioner Vijay Nehra issued a notice to the company and asked it to pay a penalty of Rs 1 crore before March 15 failing which legal action including filing of a police complaint against the company would be initiated, Nehra said in an official release issued by the civic body.

The same type of cheating is done by many private telecom companies to maximise profit. Officials are not acting against them due to the money/muscle power of the corporates.

The following report in the Financial Express indicates how even the Communication Minister himself is favouring the private telecom companies. Whether it was Dayanidhi Maran, A.Raja or now Ravi Shankar Prasad, all are there to support the private telecom companies. granting undue favours. BSNL is the orphan. Even the Minister of Communications does not take any action to revive it, except declaring that “I will not allow BSNL and MTNL to die”. See the fraction of the report in the Financial Express below:

“Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today demanded dismissal of Telecom Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad alleging a conflict of interest that has prevented him from issuing a notice to Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Jio on 4G issue, a charge vehemently denied by Prasad saying he never gave advice or appeared for the company.

AAP leader and advocate Prashant Bhushan also alleged that Manish Tewari, who was a Union Minister in the previous UPA government, had a retainership contract with Reliance Industries.”  (Report from Financial Express)
