BSNL to start offering 4G services in Punjab
By MYBRANDBOOK
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited has started rolling out 4G services in Punjab. Having completed the beta testing with 200 sites, BSNL is now looking to complete the 4G rollout in Punjab by the coming December. The state-run telecom company aims to deploy 4G across the country by June 2024, after which the focus would shift to 5G rollout. BSNL is in the process of installing 3000 sites in Punjab.
This was confirmed by Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of BSNL, P.K. Purwar.
The deployment will slowly be scaled to 6,000, and then 9,000, 12,000, and 15,000 sites per month. One of the big statements by Purwar was that BSNL aims to complete its 4G rollout by June 2024. After that, the company wants to start rolling out 5G.
At the recently concluded India Mobile Congress 2023, the radio gear that Tejas Networks is providing to BSNL was showcased. BSNL's entire 4G network will be homegrown. Even the telco's 5G will be homegrown as it will be released using the same equipment that Tejas Networks has provided to the company.
BSNL will be offering 4G in rural areas and places where high-speed broadband access is missing. This will enable India to reduce the digital divide that exists and also provide more people with opportunities that the digital world presents.
BSNL's 4G is expected to be more affordable than what private telcos offer their 4G for.
