Reliance Jio was earlier involved in a public spat with these incumbents over the availability of points of interconnections (PoI. Jio had alleged that inadequate supply of PoIs from these telcos led to massive call failures on rival networks.
Incumbents, however, denied Jio’s allegations, and even went on to blame Jio of its preparedness. The telecom regulator had last year recommended a penalty of Rs 3,050 crore on these top telcos for violating licence norms by denying adequate interconnection points to newcomer Jio.
