OFC between Port Blair and Chennai to be commissioned soon.

It is a great news that, the Optic Fibre Cable, laid down to connect the Andaman & Nicobar Islands with the main land of India, is to be commissioned soon. A few years ago, BSNLEU raised the demand that, Optic Fibre Cable should be laid down to connect Andaman & Nicobar Islands with the main land. It has become a reality now. The Optic Fibre Cable has been laid down and the Acceptance and Testing has also been completed. Thus, high speed broadband and mobile data connectivity between Andaman & Nicobar Island and the main land of India will become a reality soon.
