THE NEW SECRETARY , TELECOM TO RETIRE IN JUNE,2017.

The Central government on March 9 had unceremoniously shifted Shri.J.S.Deepak, Secretary Telecom presumably due to his firm stand on Reliance Jio freebies even beyond permissible period resulting in revenue loss to the government. In his place, Shri.Pradip Kumar Poojari, Power Secretary is given additional charge. But he is to retire in June, 2017 and it is unlikely that he may  take any  decision on key issues, the telecom sector is faced with.
