While delivering the inaugural speech at the India Mobile Congress 2020, Mukesh Ambani asserted that Reliance Jio is going to pioneer the 5G revolution in India in the second of 2020. During his speech, he also shared his ideas for making India the world’s preeminent digital society with ease of living for all.

Reliance Jio Chairman elucidated that the country is among the best digitally connected nations in the world, and for maintaining the lead, policy steps are required for acceleration on early rollout of 5G, and to afford it everywhere. Ambani also stated that the Reliance Jio 5G network will be powered by indigenous-developed network, hardware, and technology components. Jio’s 5G service will become a testimony for the government of India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat mission.

While continuing his speech at IMC 2020, Mukesh Ambani, said, “I can say with utmost confidence that 5G will enable India to not only participate in the fourth industrial revolution but also to lead it.” The iconic Indian business magnet also made requests to the government for urgent work on policy steps required for ensuring that underprivileged people on 2G network shift to affordable smartphones so they can reap the benefits such as direct benefit transfer into their bank accounts, and partake actively in the digital economy.

“As the digitalization of the Indian economy and Indian society picks up speed, the demand for digital hardware will grow enormously. India has developed world-class strengths in chip design. I clearly foresee India becoming a major hub for state-of-the-art semiconductor industry. When all the stakeholders work together, we can surely ensure that India’s success in hardware will match our success in software,” concluded Ambani.
