Operators:
- In order for the Operators to implement this, they will need to invest in some infrastructure (for location-based services). All these operators are already incurring losses because of the license fee and competition. They have no incentive to upgrade their infrastructure. Also co-ordinating with over 10 operators is going to take some time.
- Another challenge would be how to enable calling Emergency number from an inactive or suspended sim card.
- Each operator needs to maintain and share the database of its subscribers with location and when an emergency call is originated they need to pinpoint this location and share it with the operator who manages the emergency number which is MTNL/BSNL in India. Operators will have to maintain a database of the current location of every connection they sell.
- Governance:The government internally does not have proper co-ordination between all the emergency agencies. Now if they are planning to merge them they need to co-ordinate with all the agencies like police, fire, ambulance and have a dedicated trained staff to have knowledge about all these services.
- The government needs to decide what services to include and what not to include. Also the scale at which they want to do this. Do we have the infrastructure to support such a service even in the remote corner of this country? I hope yes, else implementing this will take even longer
- Which department will be in charge and who will drive this initiative? Who will bear the cost? Central or State governments.
