 | | NEW DELHI: The department of telecommunications, in a notice to all telecom operators, has reiterated that branding or naming services with less than 256 Kbps download speed is not in accordance with the Broadband Policy announced in October, 2004. |
 | | The government has strictly warned the telecom operators who indulge in marketing or posing to provide broadband services at download speed of 64 Kbps, 128 Kbps, etc., to refrain from such activities/publicizing advertisements as these types of services will not come under the category of broadband services. |
 | | In other words, any download speed, which is at 256 Kbps or more, can alone be termed as broadband services. |
