On March 27 last, The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) released the convoluted  Consultation Paper On Regulatory Framework For Over-the-top (OTT) Services (http://www.trai.gov.in/WriteReaddata/ConsultationPaper/Document/OTT-CP-27032015.pdf), which is precisely a plan to build walls on the Internet to satisfy the corporate greeds.
