## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR COMMUNICATIONS AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT (DR. PEMMASANI CHANDRA SEKHAR)

- (a) No sir, there is no such report of slow tower expansion due to radiation related public concern.
- (b) The Government has notified the Telecommunications (Right of Way) Rules, 2024 on 17th September, 2024, which  came into force on the 1st day of January, 2025, under the Telecommunications Act, 2023. These Rules provide a uniform framework for grant of permissions for  installation  of  telecom  infrastructure,  including  mobile  towers,  across  all  States  and  Union Territories of India.

(c) & d) As per TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India), all the service providers are meeting the benchmark in all the LSAs in the month of January 2026. The coverage beyond minimum rollout  obligations  is  provided  by  the  service  providers  based  on  their  techno-commercial considerations.

(e) Yes  sir,  there  is  still  some  connectivity  gap  despite  Universal  Service  Obligation  Fund support. The district wise coverage details is attached as Annexure-A.

(f) Yes sir, Government has proposed installation of additional towers under BADP (Border Area Development Plan). The details are attached as Annexure-B.
