Liscom Solutions And Services Private Lltd. vs. Union Of INDIA
Held
The Court, based on the petitioners' limited prayer, directed the respondent authorities (Ministry of Telecommunications, TRAI, and Department of Telecommunications) to consider and pass orders on the petitioners' representation (Ext.P6) within a period of three months from the date of receiving the judgment copy.
Facts
The petitioners, providers of M2M connections, sought a High Court directive against the Ministry of Telecommunications and TRAI to procure M2M connections without mandating white-listing of both phone numbers and IP addresses. They also requested consideration of their representation (Ext.P6) regarding making white-listing optional and allowing them to decide the number of white-listed items.
Key Issues
The key legal issue was whether the respondents should be directed to procure M2M connections without insisting on white-listing of phone numbers and IP addresses, or at least consider the petitioners' representation on this matter and related security aspects.
