As the government considers Vodafone Idea’s plea for a waiver of bank guarantees associated with spectrum payments, Bharti Airtel has urged the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to ensure equal treatment for all telecom companies, regardless of their financial status, according to a report by The Economic Times.
In a recent letter to the DoT, Airtel expressed its support for the proposed waiver but emphasised that any regulatory changes must adhere to a ‘non-discriminatory’ approach applicable to all operators.
