People will be able to block and track their lost or stolen mobile phones across India with the rollout of a tracking system by the government this week, a senior government official said.
Technology development body Centre for Department of Telematics (CDoT) has been running the pilot of the CEIR system in some of the telecom circles, including Delhi, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Northeast region, and the system is now ready for pan-India deployment, a DoT official, who did not wish to be identified, told PTI.
"CEIR system is scheduled for pan-India launch on May 17," the official said.
