BIS enforcement failure

BIS says it has IS 13252 (Part 1) Standard that ensures the safety of mobile phones we use. No mobile phone can be manufactured or sold without certification from BIS to this Indian standard. Any contravention is a punishable offense and is also a safety risk.

In that case how is it that 14% people are getting phones not designed for Indian market. This is major failure on part of BIS. Action must be taken.

If BIS certification is not mandatory for such phones BIS can do nothing. more  
Why depend on the Govt./Courts etc when we have the potent weapon of boycotting such companies who do not believe in the rule of law laid down. If the Mahatma could drive out the British, why not experiment this with such companies? We need to make them realise the importance of abiding by the law. We need to establish that ethics has more power than money. more  
There is no Mahatma now. We are grateful to him, because of his birth as Indian, we enjoy a paid annual holiday. more  
enforcement ???? more  
BIS don't certifies mobile phones. They have printed the standard and responsibilities lfor checking depend on consumer affairs ministry more  
We need financial safety standards for business in India through BIS. A New challenge. more
