No mobile phone in border areas!
Dr. Abdur Rahman Satkhira
The recent directive by Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission to the mobile phone operators to withdraw coverage from border areas will deprive a large number of people living in those areas from availing mobile phone service. In some of these places mobile phones are the only telecommunications service available.We understand the security concerns of BTRC, but a technical solution to restrict coverage in the border areas may be possible without removing base stations. Thus, we request BTRC to look into such a solution without depriving people of the border areas of the essential service.
