Indus Towers has deployed 180 towers to improve mobile network coverage during the spiritual festival of Mahakumbh Mela 2025 which will take place from mid-January to end-February within the city of Prayagraj in the state of Uttar Pradesh.
The towers include 110 permanent structures and 70 cell on wheels (CoW) which were installed by the end of December 2024.
The towerco has emphasised the new infrastructure will ensure improved communication not only throughout the Mela festival but will also strengthen local infrastructure in the long run.
“As we prepare for the Mahakumbh Mela, we recognise the importance of uninterrupted connectivity for millions of devotees. Our partnership with the Mela Administration and Prayagraj district administration enables us to boost the city's telecom infrastructure and enhance the digital experience for the devotees to manoeuvre through the grounds of Prayagraj with seamless connectivity", said Indus Towers' Chief Operating Officer Tejinder Kalra.
