Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has just announced mobile TV service 'Ditto TV' and limited fixed mobile telephony service that virtually helps users turn their mobile devices into a cordless phone working in sync with landlines. To avail the service, customers will need BSNL's landline, mobile, broadband connectivity.

 

BSNL has claimed that the latest limited Fixed Mobile Telephony (FMT) service is "different" from the contentious Fixed Mobile Telephony service it announced last year. While the earlier service allowed customers even on roaming in India and overseas to connect their landlines through mobile and make calls through them, but this service will be restricted within the home premises only.
