    @BSNL_CHTD Hello sir/madam, I asked for the acknowledgement for the sanctioned new landline bsnl connection. Till now I didn't get. Why this concern too lazy in picking up the call which you have given for customer care services?.. That's why private concerns are growing.

    @Pretentiousme @rakeshranjankr @rishibagree Leave 4G how was the service of BSNL before 4G was rolled out in India. I know the hardship of dealing with BSNL staff even for small fault rectification. Inspite of very good salary, very less work they never worked. Its fact. You can do a survey with any BSNL cust. of 2000 05

    @IndianGems_ If the government really cared, they would offer a basic plan in BSNL. It already has PAN India 2g network and it's adequate for calls. But no, they just divert you towards the corporate to save their ***.
