The Indian security agencies have called for strict enforcement of Caller Line Identification on all international incoming calls. Their are only four Indian carrierers who have point of interconnect for international calls - Reliance Communications Ltd, Bharti Tele-ventures Ltd, VSNL Ltd and BSNL.
If their is no CLI on an international incoming call, the Indian operators could add their two digit code followed by the country code the call originated from. However, this is likely to be obsolete and security agencies want the complete number. Good Move!!! What happens in case of VoIP originating from clients like Yahoo! messenger ?
