Jio seeks revised consultation paper as it ignores level-playing field for spectrum allocation

Reliance Jio has urged Trai to revise its consultation paper on spectrum allocation for satellite communication, emphasiing the need for a level-playing field between satellite and terrestrial services. Jio highlights that ignoring this issue could undermine competition. They argue that the current paper leans towards administrative spectrum assignment, potentially violating The Telecommunications Act, 2023. Comments are invited until October 18.
