[atlas] Routing glitch between BSNL and F Root

I just got a check from my friend who is using BSNL in Chennai.


F root is accessible via BSNL Chennai. Taking path to NIXI Chennai directly.


So routers (in Chennai) get annoucement, while routers in North India fail.
 They seem holding different versions of routing table in this case.

Is it like problem with IGP deployment of BSNL?

Not really sure which protocols they are using on backbone.



Thanks.
