Net Neutrality In India: Your Views!

[Akash1886]

Friends,

Since yesterday, this term net neutrality was heard by me many times over Radio and the videos in support of it on channels like youtube. Telecom operators are asking for additional charges for using app services like WhatsApp, Skype etc from their network. Many celebs, netizens, portals and political entities have pledged their support for Net Neutrality in India.

In India, all these telecom operators and Internet service providers who offer VoIP services have to pay a part of their revenues to the government so even with earning hefty revenues through users pan India and giving away a comparatively smaller amount to govt. does it really make sense of levying any further extra charges for using apps?

Would like to know what you all think on this?

After such a huge response all Social Networking Site and over 3 Lakh Email shootout to TRAI, this Govt may not dare to go against public's wish and implement any wrong steps.

Hope fully Modi Ji will understand this & Net Neutrality will continue in India forever. This is the biggest test for him - To please corporate world or Aam Janata.

lets see.
