This will be over and above
the Rs 13,334 crore already approved by the Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure
in 2012 for the Network for Spectrum project for building an optical fibre base
communication network for defence, Communications and IT Minister Ravi Shankar
Prasad said.
The minister was speaking
to the media after the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, chaired by Prime
Minister Narendra Modi, met here.
He said the project for the
laying of an alternate communication network for the defence services for
release of spectrum for civilian use would be completed in 24 months. The Total Investment & Insurance

The project being
implemented by the state-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) will build
an optical fibre base communication network for spectrum being released from
the defence quota.
The network is aimed to
provide additional overlay and strengthen the defence communication
infrastructure and improve redundancy.
It is expected to boost the
communication capabilities of the defence forces in a major way for "enhanced
national operational preparedness", an official statement said. The Total Investment & Insurance

"The project will also
have forward linkages to other related industries such as telecom equipment
manufacturing and other telecommunication related services."The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
