The much-awaited mobile number portability (MNP) will be rolled out in the first week of May in the cities of Chennai and Bangalore, Telecom Minister Andimuthu Raja has said.
MNP allows customers to switch operators while retaining the mobile number. The service is expected to be available at a nominal charge.
"For various reasons, we have not been able to get security clearance for the imported devices for mobile number portability. But the problem will be resolved and MNP will be introduced in Chennai and Bangalore for the first time."
The minister spoke on the occasion of launching of 3G service in Bangalore. The 3G service, rolled out on Friday by BSNL, will be launched in the first half of 2010-11 for 31 more towns and cities in Karnataka, Raja said.
