Sad News JioHotstar has been removed from Tata Play Binge plans

My Tata play Binge plan section doesn't show the option for upgrade or for change in 1 app in the flexi plan section anymore. Earlier it was visible. Does it show up for others?
If you have already changed an app recently completing your permitted set of OTTs then it won't be visible, app updated recently. Otherwise try log out then log in OR else contact CC :) . Log out log in should work as this happened with me too.

Discussion Expansion of Jio & Airtel Optical Fiber no longer happening after the entry of AirFiber?

Update #3:

After delaying fiber expansion for many months, finally Airtel Fiber cabling has been done in my street today. The LCO said Airtel team will come after 5-6 days for the FAT box installation. Then optical power checking will be done by another team and site will be marked live for new connections. He was aiming that our locality will be live for fiber between 25th to 30th March. 🙂
Update #4:

Airtel team came and installed Airtel Fiber FAT box right in front of my house pole this evening, where JioFiber FAT box was already installed. 🤩 🙌

I got to hear a sad story from the Airtel Fiber FAT splicer guy because he was super impressed by JioFiber's professional cabling work in comparison to Airtel.

He mentioned that he used to work for JioFiber construction, before joining Airtel splicing team. Since Jio has stopped new optical fiber construction, he had no work for many months and had to join Airtel Fiber. He further said that JioFiber's materials such as cables, holders etc. were top-notch and Jio has invested a lot in their infrastructure, at least way better than Airtel Fiber's materials. However, since Jio has completely stopped the work, he had no other choice than joining an alternate company. :cry:

Here's a pic of the both FAT boxes in the pole.

Upperside FAT - JioFiber, below that Airtel Fiber FAT. The big round cable loop is of JioFiber's main OFC and Airtel Fiber's cable loop is tied on the left side near the FAT box.

Discussion Unregulated optical fiber cables (OFC) pose threat

In our area, we have ACT Fibernet, Airtel Fiber, and a local broadband provider called Shah Network. ACT Fibernet stands out with its excellent approach—they avoid using electricity poles for their hubs and instead install them at various houses, compensating homeowners with discounts on their broadband plans. Unfortunately, Shah Network and Airtel continue to use poles, leading to a lot of mismanagement. The poles are cluttered with dangling wires, which not only look unsightly but also cause frequent disconnections. It's a positive step by TGCPDCL to demand the removal of these problematic wires, as they are causing significant issues for many residents. I know Musharraf from his time at GHMC, and I’m confident that under his leadership, this initiative will be executed effectively.
ACT is old player. Airtel is new player. Let's see. Shocked to see approach of Airtel in strongest circles.

Breaking Reliance Jio announces tariff hike - Unlimited 5G restricted to 2GB/Day and above plans

I'm enjoying my 320 GB Data at every month is being added to next plan on Airtel postpaid users. I'm not a data hungry person from plan 1120 is now offering 90GB data per month as per new rules. At this month, I have remaining 210 GB data with old data added.
I still didn't get this. You are on 499 plan or above plan? Just 200GB can be carry forwarded. How come you have 320GB data?
