  Sorry, if one doesn't learn from others' mistakes, one is doomed to learn it the hard way, from one's own. Not that BSNL/ MTNL was doing a wonderful job ( I had to take 1/2 day leave everytime the home landline came down - that's monthly), but wish your friends change now!

  @FinMinIndia HDFC Bank mobile app has been designed in such a way so that BSNL / MTNL sim users don’t get switched over to new app. Branch officials encourage to switch over to other mobile service provider. stop cartel of HDFC & PVT mobile se. @HDFC_Bank

  @NJain_2021 The govt knows better than US. Never know they come out w a good profit later. Or they merge BSNL/MTNL which costs than a whole lot more. Never know what their thinking is…and some things are imp for national infra. So better to save than focus purely on interest… Eg: We should’ve saved reliance defence coz it slowed down a couple of our key navy acquisitions.

  @errdconvergence The dual structure exists because full MTNL-BSNL merger was deferred due to MTNL's ₹23k+ Cr debt. From Jan 1, 2025, BSNL runs all MTNL telecom ops (fixed-line, broadband, mobile) in Delhi/Mumbai under a 10-year EBITDA-neutral agreement—handling maintenance, capex, services. MTNL retains its legal entity solely for asset monetization (prime land, towers, e.g., BKC sale) to service debts. MTNL staff bridge both during transition, creating overlap and unclear reporting until DoT finalizes absorption/redeployment. HR issues (promotions, benefits) pending; unions pushing for options like BSNL integration or DoT return. Direction should improve post-resolution.

  A general theme of Government owned service - Infinite job security, regular increments with cost of living, zero performance accountability or motivation to keep business sustainable. I kicked out MTNL the day Reliance infocom started landline. (2000-s)

  “No BSNL network in Mumbai because MTNL is almost shut down and BSNL/Government haven’t completed 4G rollout. Who is responsible? Has BSNL been sold or handed over to private companies?”

  @Jeetuburdak Private telecom companies gained popularity over MTNL and BSNL largely due to the latter’s inefficiency and poor service standards. If they now begin to follow the same path, it would certainly be a matter of concern.

  @m_a_gossip_gal @rushikesh_agre_ Thane is a part of MMR and practically Mumbai. Most of the websites show Thane in Mumbai only. STD code of Thane is also 022. Thane never had BSNL phones but it was always under MTNL.

  @uniligion @timesofindia I am sure MTNL would be in it, if government say we will shut it down or privatise then our opposition would be first to start protest.

  @raw_satire @InsightGL Disagree. There are many areas where private sector is welcome but not when strategic PSU's are killed to give this excuse for opening the sector to private players. Jio was built on MTNL's towers . OFB Kanpur will slowly look like the poor cousin of Adani Aerospace next door..
