According to the company, Jio has rolled out 5G service across all 33 district headquarters in Gujarat during its trial phase.
Gujarat is the first state to receive 5G service across all district headquarters, and it is also the largest trial roll-out of the next generation service to date.
“Today, Jio has taken a big stride forward by extending its True-5G coverage in each of the 33 district headquarters of Gujarat, thereby making Gujarat the first state in India to get Jio True 5G coverage in 100 per cent of the district headquarters. Gujarat holds a special place, as it is Reliance’s Janmabhoomi (birth place),” the company said in a statement.
“We are proud to share that Gujarat is now the first state to have 100 per cent district headquarters connected with our robust True 5G network. We want to showcase the real power of this technology and how it can impact a billion lives. Education is a focus-area for our hon’ble prime minister,” Reliance Jio Infocomm chairman Akash M Ambani said in the statement.
“Imagine the power of having 300-400 million skilled Indians joining the workforce in the next 10-15 years. It will not only give a better standard of living to each Indian but will also help in realizing our hon’ble prime minister’s vision of becoming a developed economy by 2047,” Ambani said.
“5G cannot remain an exclusive service available to the privileged few or those in our largest cities. It must be available to every citizen, every home, and every business across India. Only then can we dramatically increase productivity, earnings, and living standards across our entire economy, thereby creating a prosperous and inclusive society in our country. This is our constant belief, inspired by our ‘We Care’ philosophy,” Ambani said.
