Wherever the benchmark is not met by service provider, the explanation of TSPs is called for. After considering the explanation submitted by TSPs, TRAI imposes financial disincentives for non-compliance with the benchmark.

Moreover, Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has taken several policy initiatives to facilitate infrastructure growth for delivery of quality services. These include permitting trading/sharing/  liberalisation  of  spectrum,  permitting  passive  &  active  infrastructure  sharing, notification of Right of Way  Rules, 2016 and amendments thereof, making government land/buildings available for installations of towers, etc.

The  portal  enables  applicants  like  Telecom  Service  Provider/  Infrastructure  Provider (TSP/IP) to apply for RoW approvals to various agencies of State/UT Governments, local bodies and Ministries at one common/ single portal.

Dashboard  has  been  enabled  on  the  portal  to  view  the  State/  district  wise  status  of applications, pendency, approvals, etc. Quick approvals will lead to laying of more OFC and thus may  accelerate  fiberisation  and  increasing tower  density  which  will  enhance  connectivity  and improve Quality of Service.
