Grameenphone, ADN Telecom and Agni Systems have submitted explanation on the allegations brought against them for running the ‘Go Broadband’ service that provides fiber-optic connections by violating BTRC’s WiMax policy guidelines.

“We have responded to Bangladesh Telecommuni-cation Regulatory Com-mission (BTRC) with our clarifications within the stipulated time”
Mahmud Hossain, chief corporate affairs officer of GP, told the The independent yesterday.
But, it did not reach Engineering and Operations Division of BTRC till yesterday, some officials said.
Earlier, BTRC has asked the country’s largest 
mobile phone operator Grameenphone and its partner organisations ADN Telecom and Agni Systems to explain the allegations brought against them for running the ‘Go Broadband’ service that provides fiber-optic connections by violating BTRC’s WiMax policy guidelines.
Pointing out six allegations, the BTRC, in a letter issued on March 30, has asked the three to present their explanations by 
April 13.
On February 28, Internet Service Providers Association Bangladesh (ISPAB) submitted the complaint against Grameenphone and its two partners. 
After a scrutiny of the 
allegations, BTRC on Wednesday sought explanations from GP, ADN Telecom and Agni Systems.
As per the Telecom Act 2001 (Amendment), the commission can fine the operator or even suspend or cancel the licence for violation of the guidelines.
A letter signed by Md Nahidul Hasan, senior 
assistant director of 
BRTC’s Engineering and Operations Division, said Grameenphone, ADN Telecom and Agni System have to present six specific information which include what sort of service does Go Broadband provide, does the service have the licence of BTRC and whether it has informed BTRC if the brand is different.
The commission has also asked about the types of services Go provide and how, and has asked for a copy of the agreement between 
Go and the state-owned Sonali Bank.
The BTRC also inquired whether Go Broadband has taken the approval of the commission about revenue sharing and tariff plan 
and if taken, what is the tenure of it.
