Sirs
With reference to your email below in file F305-14/2014-QoS
Your email has been considered widely by India Against Corruption movement.
Accordingly, we respectfully decline to modify our counter-comments
only so that it can be published on website of TRAI.
The said explicit images we filed form an integral part of our
submissions and were filed in larger public interest to inform the
TRAI of the motives and antecedents of the SAVETHEINTERNET.IN group
which has spammed the present consultation process. The association of
this group and their volunteers with online gambling and online
pornography industry is readily apparent.
It is a shame that certain TSPs like RCOM and AIRCEL have been
promoting the obscenities originating from this group's sponsors in
the guise of ZEROPAID schemes.
As public spirited citizens we fully expect the TRAI to act
expeditiously on our submissions by taking strong penal and punitive
steps.
All submissions and evidences made by the undersigned to TRAI
concerning the OTT services consultation paper are pressed and none
are abandoned / waived.
Sincerely
Sarbajit Roy
India Against Corruption
