Dear TRAI, 

I am writing to you to voice my concern against the actions that telecom carriers are taking to restrict fair and equal access to the internet (Net Neutrality). Internet is a vital resource - it helps me communicate, work, and thrive as a citizen. If telecom operators discriminate internet traffic on the basis of which services pay the most, we are allowing these companies control over a vital and necessary technological resource. By doing so we allow them to define what information we can view; what entertainment we can access; and how companies can innovate.

This is completely unfair and harms India's long-term standing in the global market. I strongly believe the growth of telecoms and the well-being of the internet can go hand-in-hand. I want my generation and those that come after me to have unfettered access to the Internet, with no telcos or ISPs having the ability to charge for specific services I use on top of it. Please understand that the internet is an important resource and vital to me and to every other Indian citizen. 

I would like to see it kept free and protected under Net Neutrality to ensure fair and equal access for all and forever. 

Regards,
Shashank Venkat
