Satellite players suggest govt to adopt international best practices for spectrum allocation

Satellite industry body SIA-India on Friday said that it has suggested the Department of Telecom (Dot) to adopt international best practices for spectrum allocation. SatCom Industry Association of India has made a submission in response to the DoT’s decision to bring out a new legal framework for the telecom sector.

“The DoT has done a great job of trying to bring in amendments to keep pace with the technological developments and business trends. However, at some point, the amendments become too unwieldy and there could not be a better time to consider a new legal framework in the telecom sector,” SIA-India President and Ananth Technologies chairman and managing director Subba Rao Pavuluri said in a statement.
