Telecom minister Ashwini Vaishnaw says current pace of 5G tower development is "very less" and "slow" at 2,500/week, and that industry must increase it to 10,000/week.

At present, identifying the culprit who engages in fraudulent activities has been one of the major challenges for TRAI to curtail fraudulent calls.
Reliance Jio commanded the largest wireless subscriber base at 40,87,87,442 users as of May 31, 2022, followed by Bharti Airtel at 36,21,75,161 subscribers.
Misleading views are being propagated demanding level playing field between public 5G networks and private captive networks, says Broadband India Forum.
TRAI has the concept of a DND registry under its Unsolicited Commercial Communications guidelines, but it has been sub-optimal for long.
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) had earlier recommended a certain amount of exclusive spectrum to be earmarked for private 5G networks.

The reserve price of the spectrum allocation in the case of 30 years will be 1.5 times the reserve price for 20 years for the respective band, says TRAI
