CHENNAI: The Madras High Court has directed Bharti Cellular Limited (Airtel) to activate forthwith the ‘Do Not Disturb’ (DND) facility to two mobile phones owned by noted lawyer K Ramakrishna Reddy of Anna Nagar. Justice S Rajeswaran gave the direction on March 22, while admitting a writ petition from Reddy, praying for a direction to the service provider to pay a sum of Rs. 5.20 lakh for not activating the DND facility for about a year despite repeated representations and reminders since March last year. Petitioner contended that he had been receiving scores of commercial SMSes on his two cell-phones daily. He, being a busy advocate, was disturbed and annoyed by the messages. On March 4 last year, he sent a letter to the company to activate the DND facility forthwith.
