B K Syngal former VSNL Chairman quoted that, “”2G networks are already playing a vital role in expanding access to essentially voice and value added SMS services. India’s adoption of 3G will further improve the level of tele-density, especially broadband penetration. This, In turn, leads to enhanced GDP and job creation opportunities”
Customers of unserved territories and rural areas will be getting highly benefitted with this 3G wireless broad band technology. According to a recent study by International telecommunications Union (ITU), every 1 per cent increase in the country’s broadband internet penetration increases GDP by about 10 per cent.

Life span of people in these areas will be extended with remote diagnostics and monitoring services. 3G wireless health technology reduces the cost of travelling and other expenses to reach remote areas; this could spell a turnaround for India’s beleaguered healthcare system.
