Respected Sir,

Firstly, I hope you will not look to this email as spam despite the fact that you may receive many emails of this sort. I perhaps don't have the ability and knowledge to construct an email that dwells on all the relevant points. However I care deeply about this issue and I will be affected by it.
I am fully aware that you requested comments only from the stakeholders involved and that you probably only meant those involved in the Telecom industry. However, I am a tax-paying citizen who is a customer of these TSPs. Their services exist because people like me want, nay, need them.

While the economy may be improving in most matters, the service industry continues to drain the common man of most of his/her earnings. Today, every individual wants and needs access to Internet since all of us wish to compete and make a mark on a global level. While my compatriots strive to forge ahead and compete with larger economies, it is only fair of us to expect to be provided a platform and the necessary tools to do so on as even a footing as possible.

In order for that to become a reality, we require the regulatory bodies’ support in ensuring that we are provided with affordable and reliable internet connections which do not violate the basic tenets of net neutrality that several of our allies enjoy. I have included an infographic as attachment that shows how this will affect the users of internet services should net neutrality not be allowed to continue.

This is not merely an issue that plagues one generation or demographic but something that can have a huge impact on the economy and growth of this great nation.

I request you to consider this a plea from all the people I’m connected to over the Internet and those that they are connected to.
