SRINAGAR — Residents of Rampura and Rajpora (Khudgoo Munglu) forest area of Sopore Baramulla have a reason to rejoice as they got access to mobile network connectivity for the first time on Thursday.
The mobile phone services were launched in Kashmir in 2013 when the then late PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee received the first call from the then State Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed.
Seventeen years after, Reliance Jio started mobile connectivity in Rampura And Rajpora (Khudgoo Munglu) forest area of Sopore in Baramulla.
Residents of this forest area said that they have been demanding phone connectivity for years. The area has lush green forests and lies in upper reaches of Baramulla.
“We are really happy that we have now mobile connectivity in our village,” the residents said.
They can now stay connected to the world through voice calls and internet connectivity.
