Self-regulation code adoption a right step: BIF

NEW DELHI: Broadband India Forum (BIF) on Thursday hailed the adoption of self-regulation code and toolkit by the OCCPs (Original Curated Content Providers) under the aegis of industry body Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) saying it is a “responsible and mature” step and is also in line with the Trai’s Recommendations Regulatory Framework for Over-The-Top (OTT) Communication Services as issued on 14th September 2020.

“In the absence of any evident market failure in this vertical, we feel that the adoption of a self-regulation code and toolkit by the industry is the right way forward. BIF extends its compliments to the IAMAI and its member OCC companies for this proactive gesture,” commented TV Ramachandran, President, Broadband India Forum.
