Friday, Telecom Regulator Authority of India (TRAI) said “it will comply with the Supreme Court order asking it to consider the technical aspects of calls drops and if regulations on penalty could be amended”.

The Supreme Court asked the Telecom Authority to consider the paper dealing with technical aspects of call drop and apprise it of its stand on whether it could consider amending regulations to impose penalty on telecom firm, the chairman RS Sharma said “"Whatever has been ordered by the Supreme Court shall be complied with”.

Justice Kurian Joseph said “"Factually, it appears that nobody has seen technical papers on the day of (framing of) regulation. Please take into account the technical paper and tell us in affidavit whether you consider amending the regulations or you still want to stand by it. Whatever you have to say, tell us with reasons”.

The penal also said “The bench also said prima facie it appeared that Trai's technical papers, which cite reasons for call drops, were not taken into account while framing the 2015 regulation.

"Because the matter is sub-judice pending before the apex court of the country, it will not be appropriate for me to make any kind of observation. The only observation which I can make is that the orders of the Supreme Court shall be carried out in letter and spirit.
