Telecom service providers do not own spectrum: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has ruled that telecom service providers do not own the spectrum they use, as it is a scarce natural resource owned by the people of India. The legal title of the spectrum vests exclusively with the Union of India, which holds it in trust for the public. This ruling has significant implications for the telecom sector and is highly relevant for competitive exams, as it involves constitutional provisions and government policies related to natural resources.
