New Delhi, January 17

India and the US have released what is called an ‘Open RAN Acceleration Roadmap’ that lays down use of next-generation telecom technologies for 5G and future 6G mobile usage.

The Ministry of Communications said today: “Both sides concurred on joint efforts in next-generation communication technologies, marking a significant stride.” It said Telecom Secretary Neeraj Mittal had a meeting with US Deputy NSA Ann Neuberger in the US.

The meeting resulted in the formalisation and release of the ‘Open RAN accelerated road-map’. The agreement promotes collaboration for interoperability and scaled deployments of products classified as ‘Open RAN’, the ministry said. ‘Open RAN’ — Radio Access Network — is a telecom industry term for mobile network architecture that enables service providers on components.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
