The Centre is understood to have finalised the policy for 3G telecom services in the country and foreign players will be allowed to participate in the auction of spectrum to be held soon. According to sources, communications and IT minister A Raja has approved the final guidelines for 3G services after meeting Finance Minister P Chidambaram. Government is expected to initiate bid for 3G spectrum within the next two months, sources said. The government's permission to allow foreign players is significant in view of telecom regulator Trai's strong opposition to such a move.
