  1. Ministry of Communication & IT Department of Telecommunications Details of Telecom Facilities in North East region( CoS meeting on 15th June,2012)

  2. North east telecom - Structure North East Region comprises of Three Telecom Licensed Service Areas (LSAs) Assam LSA covers full Assam state North East LSA covers six states viz. Meghalaya, Tripura, Mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland and Manipur. However, BSNL has further segregated North East LSA into North East-1(Meghalaya, Tripura, Mizoram) and North East-2(Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland and Manipur) telecom circles Sikkim state is a part of West Bengal LSA

  9. ATR on The decisions taken in last cos meeting Last CoS meeting held on 04-08-2011 Decisions taken during the meeting and status thereof: 1. DoT may expand facilities such as Broadband in NER. USOF has launched a scheme to provide wireline Broadband connectivity to rural/remote areas by leveraging the existing wireline exchanges. USOF has also launched a scheme to provide sufficient backhaul capacity by creation of Intra district SDHQ-DHQ OFC Network. USOF has planned to connect all Gram Panchayat in the country including North East through OFC (NOFN).

  10. Status of Wireline Broadband Scheme of USOF

  11. Optical Fibre Cable (OFC) Network Augmentation in Assam

  12. Optical Fibre Cable (OFC) Network Augmentation in NE-I (Meghalaya, Mizoram & Tripura)

  13. Optical Fibre Cable (OFC) Network Augmentation in NE-II (Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur & Nagaland)

  14. ATR on The decisions taken in last cos meeting …contd BSNL has planned to augment its Broadband capacity. Purchase order for procurement of modems has been placed and supply is expected to commence from July 2012. Presently, 1.79 lakh ports capacity has been deployed in NE Region and about 55,000 ports capacity has been planned. The reason for not meeting broadband targets in NE region is that- a) Availability and reliability of electricity in rural areas is poor, b) computer penetration is very low, and c)computer literacy is poor.

  15. ATR on The decisions taken in last cos meeting … CONTD BSNL and other Private operators may be asked to pay attention to quality aspect of connectivity. TRAI has been requested to look into the QoS aspect of Telecom Services in NER. In addition BSNL has also been advised by DoT to ensure the QoS in NER as per TRAI Standards. BSNL has informed that backbone OFC network is continued to be affected by road widening work and maintenance activities in entire NER. However, the faulty routes are being restored by laying overhead OFC and in some cases Radio systems are also deployed. Besides bandwidth has also being hired from PGCIL, OIL & MECL, but full protection can not be provided.

  16. Atr on The decisions taken in last cos meeting DONER may flag the issue of under sea connectivity to the NER through COX Bazaar to MEA. Connectivity via Akhura border - M/o External Affairs has recently sought a detailed proposal. BSNL was asked to send the detailed proposal along with estimates which has been received and the same is being sent to M/o External Affairs with a copy to DoNER. In the meanwhile, USOF has written to DoNER and MEA on 14.06.2012 to furnish the following clarifications: • Whether DoNER would be funding the project ? • The response of Bangladesh authorities received so far in the matter and consequent methodology for operation and maintenance of network in case the proposal is concurred by them. • Bandwidth charges to be levied by Bangladesh authorities on long term basis.

  17. Atr on The decisions taken in last cos meeting … CONTD Connectivity via Cox Bazar- As regards Cox Bazar, the connectivity via Akhura is an optimized route based on studies of M/s TCIL and BSNL. Thus, the question of one more route via Cox Bazar would arise if route via Akhura does not materialize or found inadequate based on experience.

  18. Comprehensive Telecom Plan of BSNL Based on the request of National Advisory Council (NAC) and in consultation with Member NEC (Sh P PSrivastava), BSNL has prepared a comprehensive Telecom Plan for North East. This plan is proposed to be implemented in two phases. • Phase I – Includes investment to the tune of Rs 8965 crores, out of which Rs1055 crores will be funded by BSNL from its own resources. However, BSNL will require fund / Grants of Rs 7910 crores for complete implementation of Phase –I which will take 3 years. • Phase –II – It requires investment to the tune of Rs 10,677 crores. BSNL will require the whole amount in grants.

  19. Summary of BSNL’s Comprehensive Plan (contd.)

  20. Improvement anticipated after implementation of Plan

  21. Impact of Availability of Power on reliability The power supply in rural area in NE Region is not reliable. The performance of telecom network depends on availability and reliability of electric supply. Provision for 10 hrs battery backup has been made in the plan. Prolonged power failure results in degradation of batteries.
