Tero has been hinting about this for a while....it looks like India will go GSM. totaltele.com India's DTO to enter mobile services By Reuters staff 29 August 2000 India's state-run Department of Telecom Operations (DTO) will start cellular mobile telephone services across the country by March 2001, the government said on Monday. "The cellular service will be based on GSM technology which will be used to cover rural areas and provide village public telephones," the Communications Ministry said in a statement. "For this purpose DTO will float a tender for supply and installation of about 1.5 million lines of GSM equipment on a turnkey basis shortly," it added. Most of the Indian cities and towns and considerable stretches of rural India will be covered by the service by March, 2002, it said. The DTO will compete with a slew of private mobile telephone companies which are already established in several regions of the country after New Delhi opened up the sector. The state-run services are expected to be converted into a company later this year in what is seen as a prelude to their eventual privatisation.
