Dear TRAI, 

We are writing to express our concern against the actions that telecom carriers are taking to restrict fair access to the internet (Net Neutrality).Internet is a vital resource – it helps us communicate, work, and thrive as citizens. 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. We strongly believe the growth of telecoms and the well-being of the internet can go hand-in-hand. We are asking for a framework to ensure long term and fair access for all services regardless of size. We want our generation and those that come after us to have unfettered access to the Internet, with no telcos or ISPs having the ability to charge for specific services we use on top of it. Please understand that the internet is an important resource and vital to us and to every other Indian citizen.Even developed countries like USA have gone in with Net Neutrality concept. We would like to see it kept free and protected under Net Neutrality to ensure fair and equal access for all and forever. 

Hope that fair consideration would be given to the concerns raised.  

Regards
