The SLS Residential School founded by President Droupadi Murmu at Pahadpur, her late husband’s village, in Odisha’s Mayurbhanj district is likely to be a part of the launch of 5G service in India on Saturday.
As Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to start the service with the inauguration of Indian Mobile Congress at Pragati Maidan on October 1, teachers and students of SLS Residential School are excited that they would be among the first users of 5G services in the country.
“Executives of Reliance JIO Limited set up a temporary tower on school campus to enable launching of 5G services. Demonstrations have already been carried out. The speed of internet is lightning,” said Muna Pratihari, Vice President of SLS School. Depending upon the availability of land, a permanent tower equipped with 5G devices would be set up, said company sources.
