Mobile users stranded in cell- WiLL transit jam TIMES NEWS NETWORK [ SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, 2003 01:21:28 AM ] NEW DELHI: Mobile phone users were on Friday caught in the crossfire between warring private cellular operators and public sector telecos, BSNL/MTNL, as services got disrupted in the Capital. Hutchison and Airtel claimed that MTNL today blocked calls from their networks to its own and vice versa, while MTNL blamed the two private cellular operators of blocking calls. There are more than 15 lakh cellular subscribers of the two operators. Later in the day, calls from MTNL’s network to the cellular networks were transiting. However, it was difficult to make a call to MTNL’s fixed line subscriber from a cellular network. “Such a problem was registered about five years back when there was a strike by the MTNL employees,” said Hutchison’s Delhi head (marketing) Harit Nagpal. He said that there was no problem with the Hutch network. The company’s call centres have been flooded with complaints from subscribers unable to receive or make calls to landline phones despite repeated attempts, Mr Nagpal added. Asked whether MTNL had resorted to blocking cellular operators’ calls, he said: “Our senior management has been trying to establish link with MTNL management but without success.” MTNL officials blamed the private cellular operators for blocking the calls. “Our switches are working properly. The cellular operators are blocking the calls as they want to malign us,” said an MTNL official. economictimes.indiatimes.com
