50 Indian cities now have 5G: Check if yours is on the list

5G services kicked off in India at the beginning of October. Both Airtel and Reliance Jio announced major plans to spearhead the 5G revolution in India, while Vi (formerly Vodafone Idea) took a backseat. The first two — also the leading telecom operators in India — have collectively now rolled out their 5G services in around 50 cities in India, making the next-generation wireless communication technology available to everyone.

The information was shared by the Union Telecom Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw during the Parliament Question Hour. “Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) have started providing 5G services in the country from 01.10.2022 onwards and as of 26.11.2022, 5G services have started in 50 towns,” the minister said in a reply to a question in the Parliament. He said the 5G services are available currently at no extra cost. In other words, you currently do not have to pay anything to use 5G in India and everything is free of charge if you are an existing paid customer of Airtel and Reliance Jio.
