Ministry unveils portal to check call drops

August 12, 2016 02:26 am | Updated 02:26 am IST - NEW DELHI:

Telecom regulator TRAI introduced a portal that will allow mobile phone users to check the call drop rate, network coverage and call quality on their operators’ network. TRAI Chairman R S Sharma said this will bring in transparency about the network performance as consumers will be able to see if the call drop situation has changed. “It is a transparency portal where consumers will get information on all parameters of quality of service (QoS) including call drops, coverage or call quality,” Mr. Sharma said. Further, the regulator is likely to come out with a consultation paper on net neutrality and their final view on the issue of free data by the end of this month. “We are working on both the things… most probably, we will be able to bring the final thing of free data and consultation paper of net neutrality by the end of this month,” Mr. Sharma said.
