Correct Answer: Encouraging private sector participation


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Encouraging private sector participation

The Telecommunication Policy of 1999 aimed to encourage private sector participation in the telecommunications sector in India. It marked a significant shift from the previous policy regime, which had a state monopoly on telecommunication services.

By encouraging private sector participation, the policy aimed to increase efficiency, improve service quality, and expand the reach of telecommunication services across the country. It facilitated the entry of new players, both domestic and foreign, into the Indian telecommunications market, leading to increased competition and innovation.
