Warid launches awareness campaign
Warid Telecom has launched a countrywide awareness campaign to implement Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission's (BTRC) directives on subscriber registration, says a press release.

BTRC has made it mandatory for mobile companies to collect two passport-size photographs, identity certificate and other necessary documents from the subscribers while selling new connections.

Warid Telecom has started the campaign to create awareness about the BTRC rules on registration among the subscribers. The company has divided the country into six regions to make the countrywide campaign a success.

Warid Telecom has directed its sales centres and franchise outlets across the country to collect two recent passport-size photographs, completely filled-up registration forms, passport or driving licences or other ID for confirming identity of the subscribers while selling new connections.

As part of its countrywide monitoring of the campaign, high officials of Warid Telecom on Monday made an inspection visit to a sales centre in Mirpur to ensure implementation of the BTRC rules on subscriber registration.
