Monday, 10-Nov-2008
Bangladesh Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (BTRC) has slashed the domestic bandwidth charge by 60 percent to reach the internet facilities to the rural people who have been on the wrong side of the digital divide.

The latest cut in charges, second in five months, takes effect from Dec.1, the telecoms regulator said in a press statement on Monday.

The BTRC has issued a circular on the service providers stating that the move came in order to help upgrade the living standards in the countryside by providing easy access to internet, the BTRC release said.

The authorities also instructed the mobile operators, PSTN operators and ISP to reschedule their charges by Nov. 13 in line with the reduced charges.

“The drop in the bandwidth charges by 60 percent will facilitate internet facilities in the remote villages to help alleviate poverty and ensure development there,” BTRC chairman retired major general Manzurul Alam told bdnews24.com

“The use of internet and broadband will see a jump nationwide after the move gets effective.”

As per the reduced charges Tk 200-250 per km for 50 km, Tk 155-200 per km for 51-100 km, Tk120-160 per km for 101-200 km, Tk100-130 per km for 201-300 km, Tk75-95 per km for 301 km and above have been fixed.
