New Delhi. Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has got a license to provide internet to people traveling in airplanes. Not only this, BSNL will also connect the passengers of sea-going ships. The special thing is that the company will be able to provide connectivity not only in the sea and sky of India, but also at the global level.
BSNL’s strategic partner and global mobile satellite communications player Inmarsat confirmed that the telco has received the necessary license to provide Inmarsat’s Global Express (GX) mobile broadband services in India. Under the Inflight and Maritime Connectivity (IFMC) license, the GX will be available to Indian customers in the government, aviation and maritime sectors.
Digitization will get a boost
Along with deploying GX flights for in-flight connectivity, India’s commercial maritime companies will also be able to enhance the digitization of their ships for effective ship operations and crew welfare services. BSNL’s license will also ensure that the GX service is provided to the government as well as other users. There will be a phased launch of services for customers and partners.
