People are eagerly waiting for BSNL's 4G services, and recently Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia gave a major update. He announced that BSNL's 4G network will launch by mid-next year. Additionally, India is aiming to secure a 10% share in global 6G patents. Speaking at an event, Scindia highlighted that despite the current global economic and social challenges, the world views India as a beacon of hope.
According to Scindia, India is rising globally, and the country's economy is no longer struggling but growing. Talking about the telecom sector, he mentioned that the 5G network rollout has been rapid, with 4.5 lakh towers installed in just 22 months.
This fast-paced development will ensure wider 5G coverage soon. Along with 5G, India has also laid the groundwork for its 4G network, which will roll out by mid-2025.
Scindia further explained that India’s goal is not only to adopt technology but also to develop homegrown solutions while maintaining global standards. This approach will help India take its technology to international markets.
Notably, BSNL has been working on bringing a local 4G network, with about 22,500 mobile towers already installed. The target is to increase this number to 1 lakh by next year.
