An indigenous 5G test bed has been established at a cost of Rs 224 crore for experimenting and demonstrating 5G products, applications and use cases, Parliament was informed on Wednesday.

Many 5G products are being developed by the Centre for Development of Telematics (CDoT) and Indian startups, in line with policy initiatives of the government through flagship programmes and schemes for telecom products, Minister of State for Communications Devusinh Chauhan said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.
