TRAI raps cell firms

By Sandeep Dikshit

NEW DELHI JAN. 14. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) today took exception to the insinuation made against it by private cellular companies. It also took the companies to task for denying interconnection to calls from companies offering `limited mobility'.

"The objective seems to be to exercise undue influence on the decisions relating to the issues which are going to be decided in the near future by the TRAI or are subject matters of various judicial proceedings," it said of an open letter by cellular companies in the media and a news conference today addressed in the main by BPL's Rajeev Chandrashekhar and A&T's Virat Bhatia.
