India’s National Telecom Backbone Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) today reduced the ISD calling tariff for the Gulf Countries from the BSNL PCOs to address and fulfill the needs of its customers in Kerala telecom circle.
With the new tariff, BSNL PCO users or customers in Kerala now can make ISD calls to any phone in UAE, Saudi, Yemen, Bahrain and Kuwait for Rs 10/minute instead of Rs 12 and 15. The reduced ISD tariff to the above Gulf Countries from BSNL PCOs will be valid up to 30 January 2011.
The operator claims that new ISD tariff offers 35 % cost savings from the existing tariff or ISD tariff offered by any operator in Kerala circle.

no much use since nowadays most of them use docomo in kerala to call to gulf countries… it charges in second and also far too cheaper too… and many of the gulf expatriates call to india using the voip services… so i think if this is to be a benefit they should reduce the charge agressively
