BSNL Call quality to be monitored
[dropcap color=”#008040″ boxed=”yes” boxed_radius=”8px” class=”” id=””]T[/dropcap]he Communications Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Thursday said, he along with top official will go around the national capital to take stock of the telecom services, taking a tough stand on call drops.
The minister said while addressing at a BSNL event, that he will take Telecom secretary J.S Deepak and state-run telecome service provider BSNL’s chairman-cum-managing director Anupa Shrivastava with him to monitor the situation of call drops.
During the last test drive, conducted to improve call quality and reduce call drops, by the sector regulator, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), between December 2015-January 2016, most of the telecom service providers (TSPs) did not meet the prescribed benchmark.
The Indian telecom watchdog is likely to carry out another test drive in April to access the random call quality in various parts of the country, TRAI chairman R.S. Sharma said in February.
