“5G will allow enterprises to embark on the Industry 4.0 journey, and it will help accelerate digital transformation across industries spanning manufacturing, retail, utilities, smart cities and more. The 5G revolution would contribute significantly in achieving our honourable PM's vision of India becoming a $5 trillion economy,” said

He added that 5G will aid in bridging the digital divide – making services like healthcare, education, financial services, e-commerce and entertainment accessible to the bottom of the pyramid.
