The Ministry of Communications’ Department of Telecommunications (DoT) announced on Tuesday that all authorised TSPs have been “instructed” to roll out the CNAP service in their 4G and newer-generation telecommunication networks, including 5G, across all service areas from November 1. This means that the CNAP service will be enabled for the 6G telecommunication networks when it is released by TSPs. On the other hand, the introduction of the CNAP service for 2G and 3G networks, along with landline connections, will be considered separately. Further, the notification highlights that every new authorised TSP will also have to ensure the default implementation of the new caller identification service for their respective 4G, 5G, and newer generation telecommunication networks. DoT’s order states that CNAP should be rolled out after securing it from tampering.
