Dear TRAI,
I'm 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 and how companies can innovate.

This is completely unfair and harms India's long term role in the global market. 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 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.

Ramesh.
