No fuss, no follow up: Sunil Mittal praises govt on spectrum allocation

Telecom companies were issued allocation letters within hours after paying the first installment for 5G spectrum, prompting Bharti Enterprises Chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal to praise the government for the ease of doing business.

“No fuss, no follow up, no running around the corridors and no tall claims. This is ease of doing business at work in its full glory. In my over 30 years of first-hand experience with the DoT (Department of Telecommunications), this is a first! Business as it should be,” Mittal said in a statement on Thursday.

Telecom minister Ashwini Vaishnaw also asked the service providers to get ready for 5G roll out. “Spectrum assignment letter issued. Requesting the telecom service providers to prepare for 5G launch,” the minister tweeted.
