Vijaynagar, the easternmost and one of the remotest regulatory circles of Arunachal Pradesh’s Changlang locale has at long last got portable availability, on account of the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) which propelled its 2G administrations through satellite system in the district on Saturday.

BSNL sub divisional architect (SDE) Karma Tsering said “raising the portable pinnacle in the zone was not under any condition a simple assignment.”
“The state government and Indian Air Force expanded us the fundamental assistance and calculated help to ship the portable and satellite hardware which must be transported. Adding to the trouble was the Covid-19 pandemic,” Tsering said.
The SDE said the BSNL staff needed to remain in Jorhat for nearly 30 days to transport the vital hardware to Vijaynagar.
Changlang agent magistrate Devansh Yadav said “it is a memorable occasion for Vijaynagar circle which was without telecom network till date.”
“The 2G BSNL association with sun based force will vitalize the development of this district,” he said.
Spread across 8,000 square kilometers, Vijaynagar was found by the Assam Rifles during an endeavor named Srijit II in 1961. The undertaking was done under Major General A S Guraya, the then Inspector General of Assam Rifles.
The valley was later named by him after his child, Vijay.
Vijaynagar which includes sixteen towns has a populace of around 4400 individuals. The townspeople rely upon wetland and jhoom development for their vocation. The essential prerequisite of staple goods is met by a couple of neighborhood shops which bring products for the most part by walking. For other fundamental necessities the individuals rely upon the military helicopter which completes fights in the hover, contingent on the climate conditions.
The district is encircled on three sides by Myanmar and the opposite side by an immense and thick woodland of the Namdapha National Park.
The Arunachal Pradesh government has been investing in all amounts of energy to associate Vijaynagar with Miao under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana.
The goal-oriented 157.56 km-long street venture has, be that as it may, been deferred because of realignment and preoccupation of the street to stay away from the Namdapha National Park.
Boss Minister Pema Khandu later took to twitter to salute the individuals of Vijaynagar on the turn of events.
“Vijaynagar is an excellent spot in #Arunachal. I am charmed to realize that this far off bordertown close Indo-Myanmar fringe is currently associated with versatile availability. I express gratitude toward @BSNLCorporate and nearby organization for their difficult work in offering portable types of assistance in distant zones,” he said.
