The Govt on Wednesday said it has not yet agreed to industry body COAI's demand to extend the May 3 deadline for implementing full mobile number portability across the country. The COAI had requested the DoT to set up a coordination committee and to extend the deadline for implementing full MNP.  “For this, the DoT has formed a panel but the request of COAI to extend the deadline for full MNP has yet not been agreed,” Telecom Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said in a written reply to the lok Sabha.
