New Delhi, Nov 18 (ANI): The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has asked the government to cancel 62 licenses given to five telecom companies including Etisalat (Swan), Uninor and Videocon.
It has been reported that the recommendation for this action was made to the Telecom Ministry on Thursday.
