New Delhi: The Center is preparing to take action against 15,600 mobile connections in the state. Action will be taken against the connections suspected to have been taken using fake documents. 6.8 lakh connections in the country are under the shadow of doubt
The KYC check of these connections will be re-checked before taking action, failing which the SIM will be blocked. The Center has ordered the telecom companies to complete the inspection within 60 days.
