There are too many companies marketing and manufacturing mobile phones now-a-days. But all mobiles have different specifications, shapes and sizes of sockets and plugs of mobile chargers. There should standard shapes, sizes and specifications for mobile chargers like those for electric sockets and plugs so that any mobile charger may fit to any mobile phone. Indian government can take initiative for having some global specification for mobile chargers.
All manufacturers of mobile phones should be co-ordinated to have a common and uniform system of mobile chargers in a manner that users may be able to use same charger for any handset. It will be convenient for car manufacturers to fix mobile charger as standard equipment in cars. Bureau of Indian Standards should take steps in larger consumer interest. India being amongst countries with largest consumer base definitely can have a forceful voice at concerned international agency.
