BSNL 5G to launch by August 2023 says Ashwini Vaishnaw.

Hmm. 4G in January, 5G in August.
They will beat Jio's speed of rollout if this ever becomes true.
I'm not getting BSNL '4G' despite getting a 4G SIM in Kerala, and then they plan '5G' rollout.
 
 
BSNL would have benefitted if they launched it before Jio/Airtel, as per my understanding very few would prefer BSNL 5G (if launched) over Jio/Airtel.

I use BSNL Fiber at my village because it is the only service provider available there, in Hyderabad I use Airtel Fiber because I have multiple options here and I chose Airtel as it's service is far better compared to BSNL here. Same may apply for BSNL 5G :)

Villages don't have any private operator yet in broadband segment. Yet they don't want to provide fiber when many people wanted it since WFh started. Many IT people shifted to local operators which are far better than BSNL in all departments. That's the reason BSNL loosing in FTTH segment as well. Airtel and Jiofiber came from behind and having more connections than BSNL fiber. Don't expect anything from BSNL except far flung areas where only BSNL is available.
 
RIP Airtel only 5 block of 700 mhz spectrum left after bsnl allocation. After country wide release of 5g from bsnl and jio next year airtel will lose customers because of no indoor coverage 😑

In MP recently BSNL has started providing their FTTH to almost all the village users since JIO Fiber is available in almost all the district towns BSNL is heavily losing its market there so the village subscription is only survival for them.

Yes, still many villages do not have any private broadband availability, during covid WFH I had to rely on Jio 4G.

BSNL Fiber is available at my village from past 9 months through franchise provided to private party.They are charging installation and activation charges as per their wish. When Jio and Airtel offer free installation, who will opt for BSNL fiber with huge charges and unreliable connection.

BSNL fiber is being opted only if it is the only operator available, now I feel Jio 4G was far better (no downtime at all though costly) than BSNL Fiber and I will move right away from BSNL when Jio/Airtel Fiber is available at my village.

Airtel fiber won't come mostly. Jiofiber will come by 2024.
