I am a responsible citizen of India and have always voiced against or in favour of issues that make or break our society. Here I am writing to express my concern against the actions that telecom carriers are taking to restrict fair access to the internet (Net Neutrality). 

I believe the internet is a vital resource - it helps me communicate, work, and thrive as a citizen. If telecom operators can discriminate internet traffic on the basis of which services pay the most, we are allowing telcos 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.

This is completely unfair, against our freedom rights and harms India's long term role in the global market. India has never been a capitalist country and that has made us reach where we are. A mixed approach has benefited the society at large and here by giving all the powers to telecos so that they can differentiate can cause great harm to our society. I strongly believe the growth of telecoms and the well-being of the internet can go hand-in-hand. I'm asking for a framework to ensure long term and fair access for all services regardless of size. 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.
