Simple question. To access a government service, why should I need to buy a proprietary product. This is not possible in other government services. Say for example, 1. Only VISA card is allowed to buy items from ration shop. 2. You can use only reliance mobile to make calls to government offices. Does Public Interest Litigation solves the issue?
