Bharti Airtel is one of the leading telecom operators in India. Who strives to provide better network connectivity to customers in different areas and in any situation. Sampriti, the telco, has announced that it will provide network services to Kolkata’s underwater metro passengers even while traveling, for which they have already set up high capacity nodes 35 meters below the Hooghly River. And as a result, Airtel customers can enjoy better quality network services in India’s first underwater metro.
