TRAI’s new rule for dual sim: Nowadays almost everyone uses a smartphone. If someone needs to talk to someone, then a number is required in the mobile phone. Through which calls can be made from one number to another. All the smartphones have dual SIM.
But very few people do not keep both the SIM cards in their phone active. Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) is now planning to collect money from such people. This fee can be collected by TRAI on a one-time basis on an annual basis. Telecom Regulatory Authority of India is planning to collect this charge from telecom companies. Know what the whole matter is.
TRAI will collect fine from telecom companies
According to the information given by TRAI, a large number of numbers are not active in India. According to TRAI’s rules, if a number is not active for a long time, then such numbers should be blacklisted. And telecom companies should bring these numbers back to the market.
But they do not close the numbers for fear of losing their users. Due to this, TRAI is now planning to impose a fine on telecom companies. If this happens, then telecom companies can recover this charge from the users. Due to which users may have to pay extra charges without any reason.
Lack of new numbers in the country
According to the population of the country, a lot of numbers are needed. But at present there is a shortage of mobile numbers. Most users in the country use two numbers. But out of these, one number is used more and the other number is non-active. Now telecom companies can collect charges from such users.
According to TRAI’s report, there are about 219 million numbers in India which should be closed but the companies are not doing so. Let us tell you that the government gives a series of numbers to the telecom companies. Which the telecom companies later give to the users. At present, there are not many numbers available. In such a situation, the numbers that are available should be used appropriately.
In these countries, charges are levied on mobile numbers
If India starts charging for mobile numbers, it will not be the first country to do so. Rather, countries like Australia, Netherlands, Poland, Kuwait, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Nigeria, Singapore, South Africa, Belgium, Finland, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Denmark and Greece are already included in this list.
