India Needs Telecom Competition, Says Minister Amid Vodafone Idea Review

The government is thinking about helping Vodafone Idea, a phone company that owes a lot of money.

The government's telecom minister said it's important to have many companies in the phone business, not just a few.

Vodafone Idea's financial situation is tough because of big debts and the Supreme Court's decision.

The company said it hasn't heard from the government about any help yet.

They did have some small improvements recently, but they're still losing money overall.
