National fiberisation plan delay seen on uncertainty


The 3.5GHz spectrum meant for 5G rollout was earmarked to be allocated by the first quarter of this year.

It said players themselves are having difficulties with installation and expansion work, limiting to infrastructure maintenance and it is likely that network expansion goals driven by the NFCP are also on hold.
