Telecom
Regulatory authority of India (TRAI) was established on 20th February 1997 by
an Act of Parliament to regulate telecom services, including fixation/revision
of tariffs for telecom services which were earlier vested in the Central
Government. TRAI's mission is to create and nurture conditions for growth of
telecommunications in the country in a manner and at a pace which will enable
India to play a leading role in emerging global information society. One of the
main objectives of TRAI is to provide a fair and transparent policy environment
which promotes a level playing field and facilitates fair competition. In
pursuance of above objective TRAI has issued from time to time a large number
of regulations, orders and directives to deal with issues coming before it and
provided the required direction to the evolution of Indian telecom market from
a Government owned monopoly to a multi operator multi service open competitive
market.
TRAI
has contributed to growth of Telecom & Broadcasting while ensuring consumer
protection and fair play in the sectors. On the occasion of its completion of
20 glorious years two-day Seminar on 'Digital Broadcasting in India: Way
