Telecom boost for Northeast In a bid to provide a major boost to telecom connectivity in the Northeast, the Union Cabinet Wednesday approved the implementation of a Comprehensive Telecom Development Plan for the region at an estimated expenditure of Rs 5,336.18 crore. The project is essentially aimed at increasing the reliability of conectivity at district and state headquarters by providing alternative optical fibre line. The project will ensure that if there is any problem in one route, the voice and data transfer through other route will keep the district and state headquarters connected, the government said. Once implemented, the project would provide 2G mobile coverage in identified uncovered areas of the Northeast, provide seamless 2G mobile coverage along national highways in the region and ensure reliability of transmission network at state capitals and district headquarters.
