As February approaches, telecommunication users from J&K and some other areas, mainly from the North Eastern belt, may have to switch to postpaid connections, as the telecommunication regulator along with the defense ministry is contemplating a ban on prepaid connections in those areas.
The debate would decide the fate for almost a million users, who already use prepaid connections in these areas. According to sources, this number could rise upto 8-9 million since the areas account for about 10 million mobile users. The ministry had established a deadline, which falls in the middle of next month and might be extended for a while till a collective decision isn’t put forth by the authorities.
