every point taken.. India has achieved a lot in recent times but one thing that is missing is "service". Govt services are slow and at times unreliable. I fail to understand Why market players like Airtel and tata can give the broadband connection withen 48 hours of filling the form. its not that they are charging a lot just hundred rupees extra as compared with the same plan provided by MTNL.
plus these people come to your place even for filling the form. if there are any problems they try to rectify it within a time limit. so private players are in my opinion reliable. where as with MTNL you have to go to there center, fill the form and then wait in some cases months to get the services activated.
i used to have MTNL land line at my place and when there were some problems in line it used to takes weeks for the line man to come and rectify it, where as with Airtel it actully takes couple of days.
govt is targeting 7 million connection .. i wud say they will be doing way less than that and private players will archive more than double the target. the same case as with mobile.. everyone must be using HUtch or airtel or idea .. but people using garud or dolphin or other mobile telephony provided by MTNL BSNL are pretty less.. why ??
