DPIs are additionally important in stopping development of syndicates, as it regulates criteria.
“As an example, of where a standard is not yet there… messaging platforms don’t interoperate with others. On the other hand, emails interoperate.
“Technically, it is possible to interoperate, but it is right now under ‘lock and key’ by proprietary players. The government could force this open by mandating it… that you want to operate in India, we want messaging standards.
