, director general of the Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), has had an action-packed stint as head of the telecom industry body since 2010. Edited excerpts:Infighting was never a substantial issue in spite of the fact that there was always difference of opinion. There are always varied opinions and we try to tell all of them that one should never lose focus of the common good, consumer good and the industry good.

So telecom operators have to think of various ways to monetise data and look at other issues.Yes, it’s a concern.
