dearashwin,
I have done this already

. As I wrote in my opening mail, my telephone line was also killed recently and idiots told me that now they cannot provide triband since telephone connection is not there. Talk about cyclic dependency.
Ok so now what happened, I broke these nuts "Chakravyu" and finally got the root of the problem with my telephone line. I got hold of their internal telephone exchange/testing room nos. and guess what "Somebody in MTNL admits problem is at their end" bring in those Dancers, rejoice. Getting someone in Govt. Dept. to admit it is their fault becoz of which the telephone line has gone Kaput!!.
Ok then on late friday evening, the telephone line got restored and On Saturday I had the local lineman at my doorstep "Sahab, telephone line chal rahihai?". I said yes, but what about my freaking Triband pending since 1.5 months. He told Uska kuch bataya nahi hai but Sir, Triband on these old wires won't work nicely. Naya Wiring karao aacha Speed milenga. (He wanted money inshort).
He told, sir 1.5 mths is too late plz come to meet Mr. xyz on Monday, it shud be done. Ohh yea, now here is my telephone number, Workorder No. and other details. I will come on monday to speak to ur boss abt the delay.
Just to give uall a little background. This lineman was greedy guy just like all linemans so then after insisting I meet them on monday at the exchange. After taking my details he says, Sir Now that I have all ur details, No need to come to Exchange. I will check and bring ur Modem on Monday. I will give u a call before coming. But do the new wiring ha.
Just before writing this reply. I called up at his place to know the progress(Money is just not enough to lure these greedies. Isn't it?). A lady exclaimed 1.5 months. Sir wiring ka fault tha isiliye pending tha. Ab sab kuch thik ho gaya hai. Kal(Tuesday) lineman "Pakka" aayega.
And the saga continues......
Will keep youall posted.
Thanks for listening
