Haridwar becomes the second city in the state after the capital city Dehradun to get Jio True 5G services, according to a company statement. Jio True 5G is rolling out at a rapid pace and is the only 5G service to be present in Haridwar empowering Jio users with transformational benefits of True 5G technology, the company added.
Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami expressed that it is a matter of great pleasure that 5G (fifth-generation mobile system) services by the Jio network, which started from Dehradun city of Uttarakhand, has been extended and launched in Haridwar. “With the beginning of this service, not only the people of Haridwar, but also the pilgrims visiting the holy city of Haridwar from the country and abroad, including the pilgrims visiting for Char Dham yatra in the near future will benefit," says Dhami.

The chief minister also added, "The launch of 5G services by the Jio network ahead of the commencement of Chardham Yatra is commendable. I hope Jio's 5G network will soon be available in all the main towns of Uttarakhand. This will be a true representation of the state as a Digital Devbhoomi in the upcoming G20 Summit events scheduled in Rishikesh. On this occasion, I congratulate the people of Haridwar, and the representatives associated with Jio Network in Uttarakhand."
