Special focus on Rajasthan

Airtel was the first operator to launch 4G/3G services in the region. Airtel’s network umbrella in the region covers all key urban, semi urban and rural areas including highways, tourist destinations and trade centres. It has the widest network footprint with network coverage even in remote locations like Myajlar-Jaisalmer, Jaisindhar Station-Barmer, Lagtala–Jaisalmer, 20BD-Bikaner.

As part of its network transformation program – Project Leap, Airtel plans to roll out more that 5,000 new mobile sites across the region in FY 2019-20 with the aim of stepping up network capacity and taking services deeper into rural and unconnected areas. This rollout will effectively translate to deployment of five new Airtel mobile sites per day across the region.

With this planned rollout, the number of Airtel’s mobile sites across Rajasthan will go up by 20% and considerably enhance the network experience for customers. Airtel also plans to deploy 600 km of fresh optic fiber in the region to take its fiber footprint to 21,200 km. The addition of fresh fiber capacity will support the growth of high speed data services in the region.
