In a bid to revive its landline business, State-owned BSNL on Thursday announced an unlimited free calling scheme during night hours. The scheme, effective May 1, allows you to make calls free of cost to any operator, including mobile phones, anywhere in the country between 9 pm and 7 am and covers all types of connections, BSNL said in a statement.
“We are modernising our landline business and want to resurrect it. We have our copper cable lines available to support landline traffic and also procured millions of landline instruments to cater to customers’ demand,” BSNL Chairman and Managing Director Anupam Shrivastava said.
“There is no end date fixed for this scheme. We will review it after six months,” Shrivastava said. All major landline general plans of rural and urban areas, landline special as well as all major combo (landline with broadband) ones are part of the package.
