The consumer has to be protected as a king by all industry players namely, policy makers, regulators and operators because without which their role would be meaningless, he said.
The operators have a responsibility to provide unrivalled services to consumers though acceptable quality of services at affordable prices. There is need for transparency and openness on the side of operators to ensure that the consumer is well-informed to make choices, he went on.

He added that access has become a major bottleneck, especially in the rural areas which is mainly due to lack of market attractiveness and is an investment challenge.
“We are aware that over 85 per cent of the country is covered by second generation GSM networks, but significant areas are yet to get internet access due to lack of third generation or data ready networks,” he said.
