Satellite spectrum not to be allocated on first come first serve basis: Scindia

New Delhi: Union telecom minister Jyotiraditya Scinida on Friday asserted that satellite spectrum allocation will not be assigned on a first come first serve basis – the contentious way through which radiowaves were allotted for 2G services. While speaking at the India Economic Conclave, the minister said that it is not possible to auction spectrum for satellite service due to the science associated with it and no country has auctioned the radio waves for the same.
