Dear TRAI,
India is often called as the largest democracy in the world. Democracy is a by-product of freedom. By violating net neutrality, you're violating the very freedom that this country stands upon.
TSP provides a network and we pay to use that network. What we do with that network is up to us, as long as we don't cause physical harm to anyone. This is how thing should be and this is how things are and we should be glad. Changing this situation would be of a mark of a nation losing it's freedom in a way.
TSPs claim OTT services are taking away their revenue. It's true. That's how capitalism works. If TSPs want to get back their lost revenue, it's up to them to create their own OTT services which are better than the current ones (Bharti Airtel has introduced Hike messenger to take on Whatsapp already). It's the only fair way and if they can't do that, they should suffer the loses.
Any other way is unfair to the market and to the people of this free nation.
