💨 Abstract

In Odisha, 2,603 villages across 167 blocks have no mobile network, with Kandhamal district having the most (375 villages). Ten panchayats also lack broadband connectivity. The state government is working on the Digital Bharat Nidhi (DBN) telecom project to install new mobile towers, aiming for completion by June.
