Tuesday, August 7, 2012 After a delay of more than eight months, four mobile phone operators -- Grameenphone, Banglalink, Robi and Citycell -- finally received their renewed 2G licenses on Tuesday for the next 15 years.Posts and Telecommunications Minister Rajiuddin Ahmed Raju handed over the licenses to the operators at Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) office in the capital.
The operators were supposed to get their cellular mobile telecom (2G -- second generation) licenses in November last year, but due to a number of court battles between BTRC, National Board of Revenue and operators the renewal process hanged over.
The companies challenged some of the charges related to spectrum of the regulator and VAT to the High Court and the whole process stumbled.
Yet the cases are still pending at the apex court but after an initiative of the finance and telecom ministry the operators got their licenses.
