Yes, it seems that the bjp govt is spamming hard not only through e-mails, sms'es but also directly through broadband services and trying to get users to use their e-mail service instead of the most stable servers like Google, Yahoo, etc.
 
Hi,

Nice everthing happens for good, with this shit BSNL message I became Indian Broadband Forum member lolo :)

Yes I have been using BSNL since almost 10 years, now recently just a week back I have upgrade my OS to Windows 10. Till today everything was just fine, today since morning I had issue with the speed of my broadband. Morning I called up to local BSNL office and lodget complaint about the low speed of broadband.

Now in the evening while browsing I just got this redirection to mail.bsnl.in I just stunned and just feared thikning if there is any Virus or Malware, when I searched I got this thread and just relaxed as many of users here have already experienced this issue.

I already have Google DNS, not sure if this is the problem. I haven't used Chrome. But checking at the thread I just changed my DNS back to BSNL. Let me check and write if the problem comes back...

Guys let us not bring politics or political parties into this, country growth and we using Internet is completely different. So just stay way from politics, let us all together try to resolve this.

Hi,

Just a fllow up, I solved this issue with simple change in DNS. I have been using Google Preferred DNS server 8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS server 8.8.4.4 when I started gettig this message.

Yesterday I just suspected this might be a problem, I changed my DNS to BSNL's DNS as Preferred DNS server 208.67.222.222
Alternate DNS server 208.67.220.220

Since then I haven't received any redirets nor my speed is slow, so if you are facing this problem then try to change Google DNS to BSNL DNS and check if it works then don't forget to update here.

@JKRaghu
Thanks for that , I hope this bit of info helps the others as well. I still have a problem free experience so I am reluctant to change anything.
 
I had this issue randomly when I moved over to the New 8mbps 1091 CS70 plan.

I was on NIB-2 (117.x series IP when this happened). Unfortunately for me the line was
very unstable and I used to get disconnected every 2 min. Complained to the NOC in my
city and they got me shifted back to NIB-1 (59.x series IP). Line rates are stable at 8192/640
and I'm able to get 6.76-7 mbps speeds.

The mail redirect has disappeared. I was on Google DNS all this while even before I was
migrated to the 8mbps plan.
