Telecom infrastructure firms ask BSNL to immediately clear Rs 1,500 cr dues for continued services

Telecom infrastructure companies have asked state-run firm BSNL to clear dues totalling Rs 1,500 crore on urgent basis, saying they are unable to meet critical expenses necessary for maintaining the telco’s network.

The non-payment, the firms said, so far has already resulted in mobile service outage at various places in the country.
