| BSNL network fails once again | | |
REASI: Jammu Aug 23
India's premier telecommunication company, the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited, is in the news, yet again for the wrong reasons, at least in the backdrop of its extremely poor services in Ransoo, the base camp of Shiv Khori Shrine, where more than 40000 people are visiting daily.
Every body from security personnel to pilgrim suffer. The media had its own share of the misfortune as several wire services and some electronic networks got isolated in absence of the internet facility. The cellular and STD services also were disrupted resulting in lot of inconvenience to the thousand of subscribers.
Going by the reports, the services were snapped following the damage caused to the optical fiber cables (OFCs) during road widening on Reasi – Pouni Road at several places. Even as the BSNL authorities said they had restored the communication network after two days the snag had occurred, most subscribers were in no mood to buy the claim in view of the fact that the communication had failed at least 10 times during in just three weeks.
One would ask whether there was no supervisory control over workers who, left to themselves and perhaps answerable to nobody, mindlessly fiddled with these sensitive cables resulting in their damage and snapping of the communication links from the equally sensitive region to rest of the world. Unless the engineers and workers of the central government authority took it as kids play some of their heads should roll in view of the colossal damage they caused to the entire region.
