Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set a deadline of March 2024 for all departments to establish mobile towers in all villages in order to achieve full mobile phone coverage. During a meeting of PM-Pragati, Modi expressed concerns over delays in tower installation, stating that locals are more likely to support telecom towers than dams. The government has created a website for centralized approvals for Right of Way (RoW) for mobile coverage. The PM also emphasized the need for coordination and simultaneous construction of canals during dam projects.
