Bhubaneswar: The government will ensure Internet facility in all villages of the state by March 2025 as steps are being taken for expansion of mobile network, the state Assembly was informed on Monday.

This was stated by Electronics and IT minister Mukesh Mahaling while replying a question by Congress MLA Rama Chandra Kadam in the House. He said Odisha has as many as 47,902 mobile towers out of which 12,605 have 5G coverage.
