Airtel, a leading telecom operator in India, has launched 5G Plus services in Jammu and Srinagar. Both these cities in the state of Jammu and Kashmir would have several areas/sites with 5G services from Airtel. In a phased manner, Airtel would expand the 5G Plus services to other parts of the state, including Ladakh. Airtel 5G Plus services are currently available at no extra cost to the 4G customers in the region, and Airtel won't charge anything extra until the time it rolls out 5G in a wide-spread manner.
