NEW DELHI: Inaugurating the next-generation 5G mobile services in the country, PM Modi said India had the potential to take a lead in the technology in a world moving towards intelligent and smart networks.
“Today, 130 crore Indians are getting a wonderful gift in the form of 5G from the country and from the telecom industry. 5G is a knock on the doors of a new era in the country. It’s the beginning of an infinite sky of opportunities,” he said while launching the services, though he avoided the customary practice of making a call to herald the entry of a new technology.
“New India will not remain a mere consumer of technology, but will play an active role in the development and implementation of that technology. With 5G, India is setting a global standard in telecom technology for the first time,” he said.
Apart from mobile operators, network companies also welcomed the launch. “Nokia is committed to support our partners in ushering the 5G era in India,”Sanjay Malik, head of Nokia’s India market said. Anku Jain, MD of MediaTek India, said 5G will usher in a new wave of opportunities for businesses, unlocking the next level of growth.
Modi said the growth in 4G and now new technologies like 5G has been enabled by affordable smartphones as and some of the lowest mobile tariffs in the world. Thus, even 5G will find a play not only in the urban and affluent India but also in smaller towns and rural India.
