BSNL Injecting Advertisements in browsers

Yes. I've also been coming across these ads, at least 3 or 4 times this past week. It was useful when it told me that I had crossed 80% of my data limit - I can consider it an info and not an ad. But except for that one time, it was always an ad for some broadband plan or unlimited free calls.
I'm also on Win 10 x86, using chrome browser and a BSNL plan. I came across these ads while browsing quora, xda and some others too.

Bumping up this old thread but in last few days I am seeing too many ads redirection on my connection.
So i have put this 2 rules in Firewall script in my router. hope it helps other members.
iptables -A OUTPUT -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 117.239.236.100/24 -j REJECT
iptables -A OUTPUT -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 61.0.224.0/8 -j REJECT

or can use uMatrix in browser if router dont have such facility.
For those who don't who have a router which can do this, you can do the same with Windows Firewall or adding a static route...
Came across this blog post after hunting for a solution

The ad redirects have become a plague. Hate BSNL, but they are the only option for broadband in my place.

Not just these redirects, they also started redirecting me to 'malware removal' pages claiming my chrome had some 16xxx exploits ready to be used by hackers 
Complete WTF by BSNL. Only https were spared. Thankfully soon after Jio happened and I let that sickly wired connection to its slow death, the same which it imposed on me while surfing. Freakking 2 mbps with packet losses, hourly downtimes and what not.
