Notably, the government is looking to emulate successful models from countries like Bangladesh for the spectrum auction process. Importantly, the plan emphasizes a commitment to fairness and competition, stating that spectrum allocation will not be granted to any single operator without a rigorous competitive process.

This includes addressing ongoing court cases related to spectrum allocation and creating incentives to actively engage telecom operators in the auction process.
