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 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 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.

Regards,

Aditya Tiwari
