The new locations where the service has been expanded to enable people to benefit from access to 4G services include 55 rural and remote areas from the mountain, hilly, and terai regions. Such places include the villages of Uttargaya Rural Municipality (Rasuwa), Thantikandh Rural Municipality (Dailekh), Durgathali Rural Municipality (Bajhang), Jantedhunga Rural Municipality (Khotang), and previously uncovered areas of Inaruwa Municipality (Siraha).

Similarly, during the last fiscal year, Ncell installed 283 new towers to enhance the QoS and customer experience. These mobile towers were built in over 50 districts of the seven provinces. Most of the sites were built in Lumbini Province, Sudurpaschim Province, Koshi Province, and Madhesh Province, among others.

Jabbor Kayumov, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Ncell said, “One of the most important aspects for Ncell is to build an efficient telecommunications network across Nepal. We have connected remote and rural villages by expanding our network to ensure access to basic mobile as well as high-speed mobile broadband connectivity, contributing to the vision of Digital Nepal. We are constantly working towards our goals of connecting every Nepali through our network, providing high-quality modern services to consistently create better value for customers and partners.”
