The #UnionBudget2021 left the #telecom sector disappointed with no announcements for the industry whose services were declared essential during the pandemic, even as equipment sellers & operators prepare for the roll-out of #5G later this year. @GuhaIshita livemint.com/industry/telec…

#Telecom operators are disappointed that their concerns to improve the health of the sector were not addressed in the #UnionBudget2021. @nsitharaman @nsitharamanoffc @FinMinIndia @DoT_India @rsprasad @airtelindia @VodaIdea_NEWS @reliancejio #Budget2021 economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/telec…

#Telecom Minister @rsprasad said #5G core #network should be Indian and the country should move faster on the next-generation #technology with indigenously made telecom gears. @OfficeOfRSP @DoT_India @airtelindia @VodaIdea_NEWS @reliancejio @MeitY_NICSI hindustantimes.com/india-news/5g-…

The weak financial health of Indian #telecom service providers will continue to impact the prospects of acquiring new #spectrum and the subsequent launch of #5G #network in the country, as per a report by @CCI_India. @DoT_India @rsprasad @CNBCTV18Live cnbctv18.com/telecom/financ…

The Indian government has finalized #PLI norms for telecom & #network equipment manufacturing. The cabinet had recently approved the broader #PLIScheme to boost local #manufacturing of #telecom gear for both the domestic market & exports. @ETTelecom telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/india-fin…

Dr. PD Vaghela, Chairman @TRAI, said that use of #OpenRAN and #software defined #telecom networks will open new opportunities for Indian entities to enter the #network equipment market. @DoT_India @rsprasad @SanjayDhotreMP @FinancialXpress @kiranrathee1 financialexpress.com/industry/telec…

The next big thing in #connectivity will be the arrival of 5G #technology in India. Due to its inherent design & network usage, #5G has many advantages like higher speeds, massive capacity for more #connecteddevices, less latency & much more. @cnbctv18live cnbctv18.com/business/lever…

Perhaps it is time the government thought up some out-of-the-box alternatives to flogging #spectrum to emaciated telcos. @DoT_India @rsprasad @TRAI @SanjayDhotreMP @airtelindia @VodaIdea_NEWS @reliancejio @ETTelecom #telecom #connectivity #network #5G telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/think-out…

With the launch of #5G, users with 5G #smartphone will get connected to a 5G #network wherever available. This frees up the 4G #bandwidth, hence, #4G network users can get better #internet speeds. @reliancejio @airtelindia @VodaIdea_NEWS @gizbot #telecom gizbot.com/telecom/news/h…

Sabotaging the telecom #network #infrastructure and disrupting #telecom services as a form of protest is strongly condemned as it is causing immense inconvenience to the common man, for whom #mobile services are essential. @ThePrintIndia @ReginaDulanjali theprint.in/india/telecom-…

The #5G potential is immense & can turn the game for India & be a catalyst for the government's campaigns such as #AatmaNirbharBharat, #DigitalIndia and #MakeInIndia. @DoT_India @rsprasad @airtelindia @makeinindia @_DigitalIndia @VodaIdea_NEWS @reliancejio business-standard.com/article/econom…
