Broadband, BSNL

The TRAI has released the statistics of the broad band connections as on 31st March 2015. According to the same the broadband connections in India  have crossed 99.20 million. BSNL which was in the first position in broadband for a very long period has now been relegated to the third place with 18.88 million connections. The top five positions in broadband are given below:

1) Bharti Airtel – 22.01 million 2) Vodafone – 19.37 million 3) BSNL – 18.88 million 4) Idea Cellular – 14.52 million 5) Reliance Communications – 7.94 million.

There are many applications pending for broadband connections with BSNL in almost all cities. Why BSNL is not able to give these connections? Forum leaders at field level should take up the issue urgently with the management. If it is due to lack of equipment, the BSNL management should be pressurized to purchase them immediately. Bring these problems to the notice of the All India Unions. We can not allow BSNL position going down and down.

Universal Broadband Coverage delayed

27 Friday Jun 2014

Broadband, BSNL, NOFN, USOF

The project for providing broadband connectivity to one lakh Panchayats in the country through NOFN will not be fulfilled by 2014-15 as declared earlier. There has been much delay in implementing the project. Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF), which is funding the project which is to be implemented by BSNL, Railtel and Powergrid , has informed the Communications Minister that only 50,000 Panchayats can be covered during the period as most of the cable-laying , trenching and ducting work is incomplete.

This raises important questions. Whether it is the BSNL etc. which is delaying the matter or whether there is delay in sanctioning the funds by USOF or whether there are problems in the tenders, or whether there is no co-ordination between BSNL, Railtel and Powergrid etc. But one thing is clear. Neither the DOT, USOF, BSNL or others connected with the project have not taken the matter seriously. There may be some delay but the fact that only 50% can be completed during the period is completely unacceptable.
