Op Sindoor: Govt cracks down on online sales of unlicensed walkie-talkie

Minister of Consumer Affairs Pralhad Joshi announced on Friday that the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has initiated action against the listing and sale of walkie-talkie devices on online platforms that fail to meet legal disclosure and licensing requirements.

The CCPA’s intervention targets products lacking clear information on operating frequencies, licensing status, and Equipment Type Approval (ETA).
