The government has extended the deadline for biometric SIM re-registration by a month after a third of the mobile phone subscribers could not complete the process within the given time that ended yesterday.
Telecom operators had to deal with a last-minute rush of mobile phone users yesterday, with the deadline for biometric SIM re-registration expiring today.
A two-member committee is formed to monitor the biometric system of mobile phone SIM re-registration following some anomalies found in the system, State Minister for Post and Telecommunication Tarana Halim says.
