How to Activate DND on Jio: Activating Do Not Disturb on Your Reliance Jio Number
Activating do not disturb (DND) is one of the first things everyone should do after getting a new SIM card in India.

Remember that activating DND alone does not guarantee freedom from spam callers or text messages in India, but it blocks a fair few of them. Here’s how to activate DND on Jio.
