New Delhi hosted ITU’s Regional Standardization Forum where Minister of State for communications Devusinh Chauhan delivered a speech at the opening ceremony of the International Telecommunication Union’s Regional Standardization Forum for Asia and Oceania.

 According to Devusinh Chauhan, the nation’s telecommunications network is the second largest in the world and offers the best prices.

According to RSF, the market-friendly policies of the Union Government were responsible for the nation’s telecommunications network growth.

Chauhan emphasised that the three pillars of Ease of Doing Business, Ease of Living, and Aatmanirbhar Bharat constitute the foundation of India’s telecommunications policy, which was developed under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s direction.

The Minister claimed that the industry’s vote of confidence in the government’s initiatives was reflected in the outcome of the 5G spectrum auction.

In order to solve the digital divide, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has established a clear roadmap.

The country’s six lakh villages will all receive optical fibres as well as 4G mobile coverage as part of this project.

Telecommunications growth across India:

Over 1 lakh 750 000 villages already have access to optical fibre, and approximately 5 lakh 60 000 villages have 4G mobile capabilities.

By 2025, all 600,000 villages will have access to mobile and optical fibre connectivity, according to a multibillion-dollar comprehensive plan.

A panel discussion will be held with the goal of elucidating the policy and regulatory perspectives of the Asia and Oceania Region under a number of sub-themes.
