They have been informed about the temporary withdrawal of the order,” BTRC Chairman Shyam Sunder Sikder told bdnews24.com. Content providers of Robi and Banglalink, however, will not be affected by the move, according to Sikder. Both operators had asked their content providers to stop the TVAS from Monday following the BTRC directive. The TVAS operators provide services like news alert, songs, video and welcome tune for the four mobile operators in the country. On Nov 12, BTRC asked for an explanation from telecom operators Robi and Banglalink for charging subscribers for the service without their permission.
