So the Geo phones, twelve k offering news from last month and the Chinese phones banned news this month. So should we link both and interpret something out of this on the sideline? So I get a feeling so can we call this a crony capitalism? The reason I'm asking is Geo has the upper hand, okay? And linking both the news. So I'm just asking you guys, can we call this crony capitalism or is this just a coincidence?

So that a lot of Indian, if Indian manufacturers get a level playing field, that is hoping that Reliance doesn't get into manufacturing of handsets as well, hoping that it gives a lot of these small players an opportunity to manufacture and market their handsets to Reliance, or Atl, as the case may be. And also not to forget that it was Reliance that made a phone call as cheap as a postcard, right?
Hey Sreeja. Yes. Phi G is a whole different topic, right? 5g sold for lesser than the construed loss in two G. Two G had are entire 5G spectrum sold for only 1.5 gross. If 2G was a scam then 5G is also a scam, right? I'm waiting for the so called C H report and we know there is response now. Puti was a game changer at that time

Satish. This was a excellent post. I have to agree with you on there is a lot of crony capitalism here. But at the same time, you know, blocking Chinese products, especially in digital communication of the Indian market, is a must, especially for the national security of that country. But I just wish that with that we were not just passing on the advantages to the one and two families that help us, help our leaders attain political wins. Because that's all that happens, right?

I don't think that this is just a point. There will be there will be really a certain hand of crony capitalism in banning the Chinese phones from the Indian market under the at $12,000 to support their sales. Also, I think the government should not have done this or should not have taken this step. The reason being the qualification of mobile phones or smartphones in India were made possible by these smartphones by offering super specification at very cheap rates
And when we are so strong in such a way when it comes to external affairs thinking of our country's welfare and countries and why can't we control corporates instead of corporate controlling us? So this is the only point I'm trying to play. The key point here is when it comes to world, yes, it's India first. But when it comes to India, it's for all Indians. So this is something I am trying to insist upon
Hey Simple Simon, I thought of replying you the other day but I missed it. Super cool hearing your reply. There was nothing to get offender. In fact we are all matured enough to hear what people say and respect their thoughts, take the good things from them and if you don't agree or if you have doubts, put it in the same maturity that's it. In fact directly indirectly we are building a community here as well
Again, two angles to it. Okay. In one angle yes. I would say these are rumors. Okay. In another angle, don't think these are actually rumors. Okay. There is some insider behind it who actually leaked what do you call decisions, okay? And post that even government is interested because they actually see all the discussions happening across the country and they're actually trying to observe the people, okay?
