Dear TRAI,
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 content, 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 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.

The telcos are charging for data, it must be of no concern to them as
to what data we are using. Any such tracking by telcos is a breach of
privacy of individuals and if allowed by TRAI, is likely to be
successfully challenged in the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India through
a PIL.

Regards,
Anuj Chadda
