OTT regulation comes under I&B Ministry, says Jyotiraditya Scindia

Communications minister Jyotiraditya Scindia stated that regulating Over-The-Top (OTT) platforms falls under the I&B ministry's jurisdiction. Telecom operators are urging OTTs to share infrastructure costs, but OTTs argue this would stifle innovation. Scindia also supports establishing a dedicated telecom equipment manufacturing zone to boost India's self-reliance.
