This move will accelerate the digital revolution in India and reflects the progress of government telecom companies in the field of technology.MTNL 5G testing beginsThe Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has recently shared a screenshot of the testing of MTNL 5G service on its official X handle. This screenshot shows the presence of MTNL's 5G network. DoT says that this is a completely Made in India 5G service, using equipment manufactured in India. Like BSNL, MTNL's 5G service is also being tested by the government institution C-DoT, which is responsible for technical testing and trials.BSNL 5G service testingBSNL's 5G network was tested recently at the C-DoT campus. Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia demonstrated it publicly by making a video call on BSNL's 5G network. The minister also posted this video on his official social media account, talking about the success of BSNL 5G call trial. This trial is an important step towards improving BSNL's 5G service and making it ready for consumers.Proposal for 5G trialMany companies have submitted proposals for the trial of BSNL's 5G service.

This move of MTNL will provide high speed internet services to the users of Delhi and Mumbai and will also fulfill the expectations of the users towards new technology in the telecom sector.ConclusionThe launch of 5G and 4G services of BSNL and MTNL is going to give a new shape to the digital infrastructure in India. While BSNL is busy testing its 5G service, MTNL has prepared for both 4G and 5G services. Both these government companies will play an important role in the digital infrastructure of India and will provide better connectivity to the users.
