Submarine cable landing station to be built in Digha by 2026; Big changes in the world of internet

Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's Principal Chief Advisor Amit Mitra has said that the undersea cable landing station at Digha in East Medinipur district will be operational in the next 15-20 months. He said that this cable landing station implemented by Reliance Jio will be fully operational in the first quarter of 2026. This will further strengthen internet connectivity and data transfer capacity in the project area. Currently, all signals in eastern India pass through Mumbai or Chennai. This leads to delays and possible bottlenecks. In August 2020, West Bengal approved this project worth Rs 1,000 crore. Mitra described the project as transformational and said that it will facilitate many businesses. Digha of Bengal will be known as the new IT hub. The cable landing station is also expected to bring major changes in Silicon Valley and other IT projects in the state.
