While addressing the inaugural event of the International Telecommunication Union’s Regional Standardisation Forum (RSF) for Asia and Oceania region, Minister of State for Telecom Devusinh Chauhan said that the high-speed 5G services are expected to be rolled out in about a month.
He said India is likely to deploy indigenously developed and manufactured 5G telecom gears by end of this year for 5G services. He also said that a 6G Technology Innovations Group, has also been set up, which is working towards the development of indigenous 6G stack.
“In about a month, 5G mobile services will roll out in the country, which will have multiplier effects on the development of all sectors. A 6G Technology Innovations Group, has also been set up, which is working towards the development of indigenous 6G stack,” Chauhan said.
“We have developed a fully indigenous 5G test bed, which will facilitate testing of 5G network elements. By the end of this year, we are likely to see indigenously developed, and manufactured 5G stack, getting deployed in rolling out 5G network in India,” the minister added.
The minister said that the growth in the Indian telecom market has been prompted by the market-friendly policies of the Modi Government. “We initiated a number of structural and procedural reforms in the telecom sector. These reforms have created a very positive, and forward-looking environment for the telecom industry. As a result, a recent 5G spectrum auction in India has fetched bids of $20 billion (Rs 1.5 lakh crore),” Chauhan said.
