Users of Bangladesh mobile service warned

Concerned over the use of Bangladeshi mobile service in border areas, Union Minister Gurudas Kamat today said stringent action would be taken against those found using the services.

“It is a matter of concern. Security agencies are monitoring the situation. Stringent action will be taken if anyone is caught,” Kamat, the Minister of State for Communication and Information Technology, told reporters here.

“We are making efforts to ensure that towers are set up to the borders. We are committed to provide proper connectivity to the last point of the border,” he said after a meeting with BSNL officials of the Northeastern region here.

“As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, it (BSNL) is ensuring that the services reach every common man,” he said.

Most people use the services of Bangla Grameen Mobile Company Ltd in border areas because of poor service by BSNL.
