The Bangladesh Telecommuni-cation Regulatory Commission will not extend the May 31 deadline for re-registration of mobile phone subscribers, said its chairman, Manjurul Alam, on Wednesday.
Manjurul told that the mobile SIM cards without re-registration would be blocked gradually after the 31 May deadline expires.
He also warned that if any of the SIM cards was blocked, it would not be allowed to open again.
The BTRC chairman said that as per the information provided by the mobile operators, 70 per cent of the subscribers had already been re-registered. He said that the re-registration of the rest of the subscribers could be completed by May 31.
The BTRC has so far extended the re-registration deadline for four times in response to the requests of the mobile operators.
The regulatory body in August, 2007 decided that the operators would complete re-registration by October 16, 2007. Then it extended by deadline till December 16 before setting the new deadline on February 16, 2008. Now it has fixed May 31 as the deadline.
