To whom it may concern,

My name is Sesha Phani and I am a citizen of India. I have come to know that TRAI is taking opinions regarding proposed reforms to telecom policy to allow cellular operators to differentially charge websites (through entering contracts with such websites) or to charge customers based on the kind of services (like internet messaging, chatting, VoIP etc) that they use through standard internet packs. I am mailing you to give my opinion.

I stand firmly against this sort of practices. I strongly believe that its not the cellular operator's business to worry about the kind of services I use or the websites I visit using the internet package I purchase from them. I must have the freedom to visit any website that I like with the same speed irrespective of whether the website entered into a contract with my cellular operator or not.

I request you to discourage this sort of practices and attempts from cellular operators in India, being their regulator.

If this isnt the appropriate channel that TRAI is taking consultations regarding the above matter, I request you to redirect me to the appropriate channel.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,
Sesha Phani.
