Registration of mobile phone
Recently the govt. introduced the policy of registering the mobile phone users. It is always better late than never. But it seems to be a huge task on the part of the cell phone operators to complete the work correctly. By now the number of cell phone users has reached more that twenty millions. The illiterate public will definitely find it difficult to collect all the information required and the arduous task to fill in the registration form. Registration will for sure help identify the criminal and fraudulent activities. But the mobile phone operators can get the information in the same way they collect bills from the users. More so, the new rules can be introduced in case of new purchasers, while the information of the old users who already purchased the mobile sets may be collected by mobile phone operators using the simplest procedure. In the mean time, the govt. should keep an eye so that a group does not come out with the ulterior motive of making money, exploiting the illiterate people.
