New Delhi, May 23: The government on Friday said 3G telecom services,
which will enable faster data connectivity, will be rolled out before
January next year.
Communication Minister A Raja said the government has already drafted
the 3G policy guidelines and would release them next month.

The 3G roll out has been stuck as government wants foreign players to
come in, while TRAI has recommended existing domestic players to
participate in 3G spectrum auction.
Asked if foreign players would be allowed to participate in the 3G
spectrum auction process, Raja said he would shortly meet the Prime
Minister to take a decision on that, but either way foreign players
can come in as there is 74 per cent FDI allowed in the telecom
sector.
The minister said that the issue of working out modalities of 3G
spectrum auction process has already been referred to the law
ministry.
