Bharti challenges DoT on 3G roaming

Indian cellco Bharti Airtel has resumed its fight with regulators over the right to provide 3G services outside of its licensed circles, reports Business Today. Bharti has mounted a challenge in the Delhi High Court to notices from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) ordering all operators to cease providing 3G roaming services. The provider’s petition to the Delhi High Court argued that the DoT’s decision was not in the interest of customers, adding that the DoT’s action is: ‘arbitrary, has no rational basis, is illogical and contrary to the contract between the parties.’ Further, Bharti claimed that the action taken by the DoT was contrary to instructions from the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT) preventing the watchdog from taking any coercive action against the related cellcos.
