DoT considers extending SIM binding deadline for messaging apps

The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) is thinking about giving messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram more time to follow SIM binding rules. They missed earlier deadlines due to technical hiccups, but now they hope to get things sorted by December. Android users might be in the clear first, while iOS users need a bit more time to catch up!
