#The Govt will tomorrow start its second and final phase of BharatNetproject -- with an outlay of around Rs 34,000 crore -- to provide high-speed broadband in all panchayats by March 2019. Under the project, the Govt aims to connect 1.5 lakh panchayats through 10 lakh kilometres of additional optical fibre and give bandwidth to telecom players at nearly 75% cheaper price for broadband and Wi-Fi services in rural areas.
#FM said the Govt has decided to inject more capital in state-owned banks to strengthen the banking system and spur economic growth through bonds and banks equity expansion and therefore, it is the country, which is virtually going to pay to keep the banking system in good health.
#Stockbrokers have termed Sebi’s directive of compulsorily keeping records of telephonic communications with clients as “not practical” since that would be difficult in terms of identification and retrieval. Voicing concerns over the directive, the Association of National Exchanges Members of India, also said monitoring of communications with clients would be difficult as multiple modes, including mobile phones and WhatsApp messenger, are used for placing orders.
