DoT DEFENDS DECISION TO GIVE UNIFIED LICENCE TO RELIANCE JIO


(Indian Business Insight Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) The Department of Telecom (DoT) has justified its decision to offer unified licence to Reliance Jio. The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) had raised questions over the policy of allowing Internet service providers to offer telephony services. The DoT has questioned the powers of CAG to raise policy issues that are not related to audit. Reliance Jio had acquired Infotel Broadband Services Pvt Ltd in Jun 2010. The DoT had announced the unified licence policy in 2013.
