DoT ne confirm kar diya hai ki ab har network par 'Calling Name Presentation' (CNAP) feature mandatory hoga. Iska main goal scam aur spam calls ko block karna hai.
Caller ka naam ab screen par
Ab tak hum sirf number dekhte thay, par Department of Telecommunications (DoT) ne November 1 tak sabhi telecom operators ko CNAP feature enable karne ka order diya hai. Iska matlab saaf hai—spam aur fraud karne walon ke liye ab bachna mushkil hoga.
Telcos ke liye kya hai challenge?
Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, aur Vodafone Idea jaise bade players ke liye ye ek bada technical task hai. Network ko itna fast banana hoga ki call aate hi real-time mein database se naam fetch ho jaye aur connectivity mein koi delay na aaye. Ye update 4G aur 5G networks par focus karega, jabki 2G/3G aur landlines ka mamla abhi pending hai.
Business aur Privacy ka angle
Businesses ko apna 'Trade Name' dikhane ki chhoot hogi, lekin telcos ko unka GST ya trademark documents verify karna hoga. Ye telcos ke liye ek naya administrative burden hai. Haalanki, jin logon ne pehle se CLIR (Calling Line Identification Restriction) opt kiya hai, unki privacy safe rahegi.
Investors ke liye kya hai zaruri?
TRAI ka ye move user trust ke liye toh badhiya hai, par investors ko ye dekhna hoga ki is compliance ka margin par kitna asar padta hai. Network speed maintain karte hue itna bada database query system chalana koi chhota kaam nahi hai. Market ab ye watch kar raha hai ki telcos ise kaise handle karte hain.
