Kolkata, April 2:
The Union Telecom Minister, Mr Kapil Sibal, on Monday said that action
would be taken against the telecom operators who have been violating 3G
spectrum licences.
Referring to the 3G roaming agreement among the three telecom companies –
Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Essar and Idea Cellular – Mr Sibal said, “We
have already said that the telecom operators have violated their
licences and action will be taken in accordance with that.”
The Minister was speaking to the media on the sidelines of 47th annual

The three telecom majors had reportedly entered into an agreement to

against the terms and condition of telecom licences.
