Telcos seek Trai’s intervention on alleged denial of RoW nod by Navi Mumbai airport
New Delhi: COAI has sought telecom regulator Trai’s intervention on alleged denial of ‘right of way’ permission by Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIAL), as the telcos’ association accused it of creating an “exclusive, monopolistic” in-building telecom arrangement at a public airport.
COAI, in its letter addressed to Trai Chairman Anil Kumar Lahoti, has also urged the regulator to lay down and enforce a cost-based pricing framework and appropriate price ceilings for in-building telecom infrastructure in situations where a single entity exercises “monopoly control” over access at public or captive locations, such as airports, metro stations and similar public premises.
