  1. None of the Government Departments can provide you knowledge about genuine net business provider in India. In case of any major complaint reported, investigated and found guilty find mentions in negative lists maintained by the concerned authorities. Otherwise, government departments refrain from such activities.


  2. One of the most progressive, non-controversial, technology-neutral, competition-promoting, people-beneficent policy that Government of India has ever promulgated is the one with respect to the Internet. Immediately after its victory, in 1998, the BJP-led government constituted a National Task Force on information technology and this Task Force crafted an Internet policy as part of the national IT policy. The Task Force made recommendations within 90 days of its appointment and the Government accepted the first such containing the Internet policy within the next 60 days. Such swift decision making is unprecedented. One of the wisest things was that the monopolist incumbents viz. DoT and VSNL were not included in this Task Force although, they were involved in the consultation process. That is why the Internet policy is the most people friendly. The DoT was very much opposed to sweeping liberalisation measures that the Task Force and the Government were seeking to put in place. The Chief elements of the world-wide acclaimed policy are:

    There is no license fee. There is no entrance fee. There is no revenue share. All these are burdensome impositions on private telecom companies that intend to enter this sector.

    Any Indian enterprise could become an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in one city, many cities, one state, many states or the entire territory of India. There is no limit on the number of licenses a company can hold.

    The ISPs can connect customers to their Points of Presence (PoP) by either deploying wireless on their own or through cable T.V's infrastructure or leasing circuits from whosoever has got capacity (the DoT and the basic telephone private companies).

    ISPs can set up their own Internet gateways to connect to global Internet backbones using either communication satellites and earth stations of their own or leasing them from whosoever can provide. They can connect to any submarine cable capacity available in the coastal cities of India.

    The ISP may also construct transmission capacity to inter-link the cities and states where they provide Internet services and connect them to their own international gateways.

    Utilities like Railways, GAIL, Power Grid Corporation, State Electricity Boards can also build up transmission capacity through optical fiber cables and lease either the dark fibers or the bandwidth to Internet Service Providers.
