BSNL 4G Towers Live: The government telecom company BSNL in India has announced the commercial launch of its 4G service this year, and has also taken significant steps towards the 5G network. BSNL has already set up more than 65,000 4G mobile towers across the country, providing users with better network connectivity. The company's goal is to increase this number to 100,000 in the coming months, in order to strengthen 4G connectivity nationwide.

Improved Connectivity and Network Coverage

BSNL has shared this information on its official X handle, stating that more than 65,000 4G mobile towers are now live across India. This means users will benefit from faster internet speeds and better network coverage. The company plans to commercially launch its 4G service nationwide this year, and is also testing its 5G network. BSNL has partnered with Tata for its 5G network, marking a significant step in this domain.

Phase-Out of 3G Network

BSNL has begun phasing out its 3G network and is upgrading its 3G mobile towers to 4G. Recently, the company has terminated its 3G service in the Bihar telecom service, and this process is ongoing in several other telecom circles. Additionally, users who have not yet upgraded their SIM cards to 4G can receive a new 4G SIM card for free from the nearest telecom exchange or customer service center.

BSNL's Advantage: Affordable Recharge Plans

With improved network connectivity, BSNL is likely to attract a large number of new users, especially those shifting from private telecom companies to BSNL. BSNL's recharge plans are much cheaper than those of Jio, Airtel, and Vi, which puts less strain on users' wallets. The company had confirmed last year through its MD that it has no intention of increasing its mobile tariffs, ensuring users get better connectivity at affordable rates.

Conclusion

The commercial launch of BSNL's 4G service and the testing of its 5G network signals a new revolution in the Indian telecom sector. With better network coverage, affordable recharge plans, and efforts towards 4G/5G, millions of Indian mobile users will benefit. BSNL has gradually phased out its 3G services and improved its 4G network, which will become even more convenient for users in the future.
