Telecom infra providers face coercive actions in Noida for deploying towers: DIPA

The Digital Infrastructure Providers Association (DIPA) on Monday said its member tower companies are facing coercive actions from the Noida Authority in Uttar Pradesh for deploying towers in residential areas.

The association, which represents companies like Indus Towers, ATC, Ascend Telecom, Summit Digitel Infrastructure, among others, said that such rejections by Noida Authority are not in line with the government’s recently amended Telegraph Right of Way (RoW) Rules, 2016.
