Introduction
Consumer Protection is one of CAG's core areas of work and as part of our efforts to educate and inform consumers on various consumer issues and related happenings, including our own activities, we publish "Consumer Update", a bi-monthly e-newsletter.
CAG welcomes TRAI’s proposed amendments aimed at improving affordability and consumer choice through Voice and SMS-only tariff options. While appreciating this consumer-centric initiative, we have submitted detailed comments highlighting the need for stronger safeguards on transparency, accessibility, affordability, and implementation.
