07 Jul 2025 CW Team

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has submitted its response to the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) regarding the back-reference on TRAI’s recommendations dated 20 December 2024 about the assignment of additional spectrum to Indian Railways for safety and security applications.

Earlier, DoT had requested TRAI on 26 July 2023 to examine Indian Railways’ demand for an additional 5 MHz of paired spectrum in the 700 MHz band to be allocated free of cost to enhance its safety and security systems. Following a detailed consultation with stakeholders, TRAI submitted its initial recommendations to DoT on 20 December 2024.

Subsequently, DoT referred certain aspects of TRAI’s recommendations back to the regulator on 16 June 2025, seeking reconsidered views as per Section 11 of the TRAI Act 1997. After careful review, TRAI has now provided its response to the back-reference, which has also been published on TRAI’s official website.
