BSNL’s unpaid dues: Nokia seeks PM Narendra Modi’s intervention to recover Rs 970 crore

Finnish telecom giant Nokia has sought Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s intervention to recover dues amounting to Rs 970 crore from BSNL, pending for more than 15 months even when the government has provided a revival package to the state-run firm in October last year.

In a letter to PM Modi, Nokia India CEO Sanjay Malik said that BSNL gave a new commitment in January this year that all the dues would be cleared by September 2020 but the state-owned firm has been defaulting on making payments since April.
