NET NEUTRALITY
IT’S JUST AN IDEA
A term that says Internet Service Providers & Regulators should treat all data on the Internet equally, not discriminating or
charging differentially by user, content, site, platform, application, type of devices connected and purpose of usage.

NET NEUTRALITY IN INDIA
On 8 February 2016, TRAI took a (revolutionary) decision prohibiting telecom service providers from levying discriminatory rates for data1. No service provider can offer or charge discriminatory tariffs
for data services on the basis of content.2. Reduced tariff for accessing or providing emergency services,
or at times of public emergency has been permitted.3. Review after 2 Years
Above guidelines from TRAI, it does not enforce it.

WHAT WE NEED?
• Please, less of Government. No new laws!• We remember what happened with 2G!
• Authorities to monitor and enforce existing Fair Trade/Consumer Rights
• Market place to determine the winners and losers
• Utilise the UAL (Universal Service Obligation Fund)• It’s over Rs.41834.10 Crores as on 31.12.2015
• Lastly, look at the big picture – privacy, freedom and self-censorship
