Jio, Vodafone seek auctions for airwave allocation, and Airtel wants non-auction allocation
Reliance Jio launched its satellite communications service called Jio Space Fiber at the India Mobile Congress even as rival Bharti Group-backed satellite internet service conglomerate, Eutelsat-OneWeb, said it was ready to begin offering satellite broadband services from next month.
The Mukesh Ambani-backed telco demonstrated the reach of the service by connecting four of the remotest locations in India with JioSpaceFiber in Gir, Gujarat, Korba in Chhattisgarh, Nabrangpur in Odisha and Jorhat, Assam.
“Jio has enabled millions of homes and businesses in India to experience broadband internet for the first time. With JioSpaceFiber, we expand our reach to cover the millions yet to be connected," said Akash Ambani, chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd.
