Unregistered telemarketing: Delhi High Court pulls up TRAI -Soibam Rocky Singh

-The Hindu

Court was hearing Paytm’s petition.

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday expressed displeasure at the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) failing to take action against unregistered telemarketers engaged in unsolicited commercial communications (UCC).

A Bench of Chief Justice D.N. Patel and Justice Prateek Jalan asked the telecom regulator why it had not taken any action against anybody till now. “Take action against some persons, so that the remaining persons will fall in line”, it said.

The Bench raised serious objection to the TRAI counsel taking to the court to define various regulations instead of showing the actual progress of the action taken against unregistered telemarketers.

Show-cause notice

When counsel argued that show-cause notice had been issued to various individuals and entities, the Bench shot back saying, “Show-cause notice is not an action. It is the process of taking action. Show us the progress that you have taken action against 10 persons”.

It cautioned, “There is a wrong notion in your [TRAI] mind that a show-cause notice is an action. We will impose cost upon you for every adjournment”.
