Operations of internet service without license punishable: NTA

Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA) has said that a license is required to provide internet service. Issuing a notice recently, the telecommunications regulatory body stated that clause-21 of Telecommunications Act- 2053 BS (1997) has banned the operation of telecommunications services without permission and urged one and all to abide by it.

As the notice mentions, the NTA has received complaints that internet service via satellite is being operated for the past few days and it is against the law. The NTA has warned that it would take an action as per the law in case of a violation of the Act. It has also urged the public for cooperating for the effective implementation of the Act, requesting one and all to inform if there is any case of the operation of service without a permit.
