Communication and IT Minister Dayanidhi Maran said today the roaming charges of private cellular operators were “very high” and the industry must look into it to bring them down. “Mobile charges for roaming are very, very high... I think they should be much lower than existing rates. BSNL does not charge roaming, why can’t the private operators also take this initiative to bring them down,” Mr Maran said at the cellular summit organised by the Cellular Operators Association of India. The Government, on its part, would do everything to remove all the hurdles coming in the way of growth of telecommunication, the minister said, adding that “but the operators also must reciprocate from their side.” Replying to the industry’s demand that the government should reduce the licence fee and allow BSNL to share the infrastructure especially for the rural areas, Mr Maran said “don’t waste your time in Delhi making rounds to the ministry... Go to the rural areas and connect India. We on our part will do everything to see that all hurdles are removed one by one.”
