5G Will Spread Digital Net Wide, In Line with Dr APJ Abdul Kalam’s Vision: Ex-President’s Tech Advisor

News 18  

Prime Minister Narendra Modi officially launched the nation’s 5G services on October 1, 2022, ushering in an era of ultra-high-speed mobile internet. “The march of India into 5G technology is truly heralding a new era of Digital India," he said. Singh also said that 5G is expected to bring the processing power to India’s 600,000 villages which resonates with Dr Kalam’s model of Providing Urban Amenities in Rural Areas, where he had talked about how Electronic Connectivity would be the biggest asset for India’s rural growth and economic empowerment. When asked where he sees India’s position compared to the technology available in the US and China, he said that both the countries are a few years ahead of India in 5G implementation and “thereby we also need significant investments in speeding up the rollout of 5G". Singh, who co-authored the book Target 3 Billion and Advantage India with Dr Kalam, suggested that 5G devices and network manufacturing must be indigenous as far as possible.
