Kibithu/Arunachal Pradesh: Kibithu, the village at the boundary between India and Tibet in Arunachal Pradesh, has accomplished a remarkable achievement with the introduction of 4G mobile connectivity.


Airtel has successfully commissioned the 4G network, bringing uninterrupted communication to this remote hamlet.

Chief Minister Pema Khandu expressed his delight, emphasizing the significance of this achievement. Taking to Twitter, Khandu stated, “It’s not a simple phone or video call but a giant step aimed at providing seamless connectivity to the people of the first village of India–Kibithoo.”

He further added, “Heartening that the 4G network has been commissioned at Kibithoo–under the Universal Service Funded Scheme."

This achievement marks a giant step towards seamless communication for the village residents. The introduction of 4G in Kibithu is part of the government's efforts to bridge the digital divide in remote regions, with the aim of making the internet safe and accessible to all citizens.

The new infrastructure not only benefits Kibithu but also connects at least 70,000 residents in villages near the Line of Actual Control.

The high-speed connectivity is bringing numerous advantages to the region, such as improved access to information for businesses and educational opportunities for children.

However, challenges such as the need for a reliable power supply still exist. Despite these challenges, the digital transformation in Kibithu and the broader region demonstrates the transformative power of technology in driving progress and development.

The government's view of a unified India through the use of digital technology is becoming an actuality as more villages gain access to the advantages of high-speed internet, resulting in a more equitable and empowered society.
