As per industry sources, Ladakh Lieutenant Governor R K Mathur recently held a meeting to redress tele-connectivity issues in the union territory.
As part of this, various issues were discussed upon such as installation and commissioning of new towers in uncovered areas, Wi-Fi networks, connectivity solutions via optical fibre cables (OFC), progress in services and infrastructure of the Ladakh State Data Centre, and spectrum upgradation of the existing telecom service providers, among other issues.
Further, the lieutenant governor is believed to have instructed the IT secretary for creation of a redundancy for OFC networks available in Ladakh aiming at achieving an uninterrupted internet.
In addition to this, the functioning of common service centres (CSCs) at the gram panchayat level and increasing their numbers was also discussed during the meeting.
