After Noida, cell phone subscribers in Gurgaon, Faridabad and other National Capital Region (NCR) towns in Haryana could face inconvenience. February 9 is Haryana government's deadline to comply with the new communication tower bylaws.

The bylaws cover already existing communication towers as well as those still to be erected. Applicants were required to apply for the licence to erect and operate towers within two months of the notification.
Municipal commissioner R.K. "We have received only 30 applications after the notification, while about 200 applications for existing towers are already pending," he added. Khullar said after receiving the approval of site in a particular zone from the Telecom Regulatory Authority (TRAI), the civic body would decide on the location in the commercial area or a building.
"As per the bylaws, if it is not possible to erect towers in commercial areas, the possibility to install the same at public land or park within residential areas, open spaces or community buildings could be looked into. However, if the municipal body failed to identify the location of the tower within 15 days, the tower could be installed at the alternate site of choice.
