Trai recommends: Every day, unknown and promotional calls come to the phone, which has become a big problem for mobile users, to overcome which TRAI has recommended starting Caller ID Display Service.

The path to TRAI’s recommendations to show the caller’s number is not easy. According to media reports, this is a violation of the Data Protection Act. To implement this, the government will have to make a provision for exemption in the Data Protection Law.

The provision of showing names is not easy-

• Sources say that TRAI’s recommendations are a violation of rules. These recommendations violate data protection law.
• But sources said that the government will have to make a provision for relaxation in the law. Recently the Personal Data Protection Act has been made.
• To implement this, it will be mandatory to show the name. Consumers will not be able to keep themselves out of the register.
• Consumer’s personal information can be misused. Making consumer’s personal information public is a crime. Other companies will also have to be exempted from this.
• Let us tell you that a proposal has been passed by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India i.e. TRAI. In this, all mobile operators like Jio, Airtel, Vodafone-Idea and BSNL have been instructed to implement the caller ID system.
• Every day, unknown and promotional calls are received on the phone, which has become a big problem for mobile users, to overcome which TRAI has recommended starting Caller ID Display Service.
• In this service, when a call comes on your phone, the name of the caller will be displayed, whether the caller’s number is saved in your mobile or not. This service will get rid of the problem of fraud and unknown callers.
