>>how much bad press would be generated about "job-killing License Raj" etc.
I'm amazed many Indians still fall for this. The current day telecommunications companies came into being like knights in shining armor, to fight the decades of rot and stagnation in the ecosystem due to BSNL in the early 2000's.
Now their whole business is being disrupted in the same way, they disrupted BSNL's business. Price innovation, innovation in customer service and making services accessible to every one at affordable prices. Now when they are being given a dose of their own medicine, they want the government to come in and have regulations to save them.
Funny how capitalism works when you are at the receiving end.
If these people aren't stopped now they will let things stagnate and rot for the next half century. We all know how well that worked out.
