The Government of Rajasthan aims to expand network connectivity to approximately 10,000 locations across 9,177 gram panchayats and 183 municipal areas to provide voice, video, and data services. A multi-mode solution using VSAT, leased wireless or wired lines will be implemented. A captive VSAT hub will be set up, and VSATs may use extended C-band or KU-band frequencies. A competitive bidding process will select a system integrator consortium of IT companies and bandwidth providers to provide the multi-mode connectivity with minimum assured links for each mode. The solution will be monitored through an integrated network monitoring system connecting existing state networks for 5 years by the selected agency.
