The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has ruled out the need to regulate communications apps or over-the-top (OTT) platforms such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Viber and Google. The authority believes that the time is not right to come up with a comprehensive regulatory framework. It has also dismissed the need for any regulatory intervention relating to the privacy and security of OTT services for now.
