"Bridging every town and key rural areas in India by September 2023 remains our commitment as we continue to add 30-40 cities/ towns every single day. We are witnessing a rapid adoption of 5G amongst customers both in urban and rural India," Randeep Sekhon, CTO, Bharti Airtel, said in a statement.

Moreover, the company stated that it also launched unlimited 5G data for its customers with the view to encouraging them to experience the power of the Airtel 5G Plus network.

"Customers will now be able to experience ultrafast, reliable and secure 5G Plus services without having to worry about data exhaustion as Airtel removes the capping on data usage across all existing plans," Airtel said.
