The Indian telecom operators are going to meet the sector regulator on February 17, 2023, to discuss the quality of services (QoS) being provided to the users. The QoS of both the wireline, as well as the wireless services would be under question. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) also met with the telcos a few weeks back to discuss the same. Since the time the telcos have started rolling out 5G, the issue of call drops has significantly gone up. The telcos said that it is a temporary issue and, with time, should subside as networks and devices are more optimised for connecting with the 5G networks.
