Indian mobile phone users will soon be able to experience ultra high Internet speeds via 5G wireless technology with Prime Minister Narendra Modi launching the next generation mobile network on Saturday.
“Today, on behalf of the country, and the country’s telecom industry, 130 crore Indians are getting a wonderful gift in the form of 5G. 5G is a knock on the doors of a new era in the country. It is the beginning of an infinite sky of opportunities,” the Prime Minister said while launching the service at Indian Mobile Congress.
Telecom industry titans — Reliance Industries Limited CMD Mukesh Ambani, Bharti Enterprises Chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal and Aditya Birla Group Chairman Kumar Mangalam Birla — shared the stage with the Prime Minister and committed to a speedy roll-out of “affordable” 5G services in the country.
