5G in India is currently the hot topic and we are all awaiting the official rollout of the next-gen network. With reports suggesting that the commercial rollout may start later this year, we now have information on indigenous 5G too and its rollout may be scheduled for this year too. Here are the details to know.
The Minister of State of Telecommunications Devusinh Chauhan has suggested that the indigenous 5G stack will start rolling out by August 2022, which could be somewhere close to this year’s Independence Day celebrations. This was announced at the World Summit of Information Society (WSIS) 2022 in Geneva.
Chauhan further claims that India believes in the ideology of “Antyodaya,” which focuses on the development of the marginalized people. Therefore, around 6,000 villages are being connected through optical fiber cables for the “development of reliable ICT infrastructure.”
