At a time when major telecom players are giving tough competition to each other in 4G services , Mumbai Police has something to say.
Mumbai Police is concerned about the regulations of 4G services and has expressed the same to Maharashtra government and Union Department of Telecommunications (DoT).
Mumbai Police has expressed reservations over the roll out of the 4G service without putting in adequate safeguards in place as it says 4G services can be misused by criminals, the underworld and terrorist organisations.
"While Telecom companies have begun rolling out 4G services, the parameters for regulation have not been fixed. Currently, the 4G network could be misused by underworld elements and terrorists; we want the service providers to provide in built systems to ensure that our work in catching criminals is not hampered," a top Mumbai police official told ET.
The police have also suggested measures for Telecom companies to adhere to while installing in their systems.
