Mobile companies join the queue
We can draw a perfect example of the extent to which the profiteering attitude of the mobile phone companies in our country has reached. This is evident from the fact that they are charging even for their service of a special number/call to listen to Sehri/Iftar timings.
Now, people will not be calling this number for the "fun" of it! So, why couldn't the mobile service providers make this facility absolutely free of cost? Do they really need to earn money even from such a service which is only valid for the Holy month of Ramadan?
