Telecom operator Bharti Airtel today launched its high-speed 4G and 2G services in 26 villages of Ladakh. With this launch, Airtel has deepened its pan-India 4G network deployment. The telco also confirmed that it is the first operator to bring high-speed mobile broadband to these 26 villages and provide them with digital connectivity. To recall, Bharti Airtel was the first operator to launch 4G services in Ladakh’s Leh, Kargil & Dras in December 2017. This expansion also marks the second anniversary of the launch of 4G services in the region by Airtel, said the company. Providing 4G services in Ladakh region is not an easy task, but Airtel is actively expanding the service availability in these locations.

Airtel Expands Network Availability in Ladakh Region
As part of Project Leap, Bharti Airtel has been expanding 4G network to various locations. In 2017, it was the first operator to bring 4G services to Ladakh as part of the same project. For two years now, Airtel has been working hard to expand the network availability in remote areas. The 4G and 2G services launch in 26 villages of Ladakh will allow the citizens in the region to experience high-speed data services for the first time.
The launch underlines the efforts of Airtel’s network teams to overcome the challenges of harsh weather and tough terrain in the region to empower the citizens of these villages, which are spread across the 150 km stretch from Kargil-Batalik-Hanuthang-Skurbuchan-Khalsi, said Bharti Airtel in a press statement.
