Vodafone Idea MD Ravinder Takkar rejects Mukesh Ambani’s call for 2G free India

The Vodafone Idea (VIL) MD’s views came less than a fortnight after Ambani had urged telecom minister Ravi Shankar Prasad to speed up policy measures to ensure a quick end of 2G in India. If accepted by the government, the move could hit Vodafone Idea and Bharti Airtel, who together have around 300 million 2G users critical to their revenue streams.
