The Union Cabinet has approved the merger of Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) and Bharat Broadband Network Limited (BBNL), which could help revive BSNL. As part of this merger, the state-owned telco BSNL will receive a support package of ₹1,64,156 crore.

In a statement to ETTelecom, BSNL CMD PK Purwar explained how the two companies will be merged, “BSNL will work as an executing arm of the government and ownership of assets will rest with the government. BBNL has a workforce of less than 200. We have in our proposal said that we can absorb them in BSNL and contracts will be obliged, and revenue share agreements will be honoured.” BBNL is a special purpose vehicle (SPV) that was set up by the government to establish the BharatNet project.

This fibre has been laid across 1.85 lakh village panchayats in the country, thanks to the Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF). The USOF is a reserve worth ₹55,000 crores that has been established to improve connectivity in India’s rural and inaccessible areas.
