- Abstract
To give a momentum to the growth of Indian economy, the early 1990s witnessed a wave of rigorous reforms. Even one of the most vibrant sectors of the service basket i.e., telecom could not resist this wave. Hence, two major National Telecom Policies (1994 and 1999) were the outcome. However, mere policy formation is always a futile exercise unless accompanied by proper and timely implementation. Therefore, the present paper attempts to appraise the National Telecom Policy (NTP) 1999 for assessing the success of realization of its objectives. The study found that except for some areas like rural services; this policy has been successfully implemented.
