Diglipur, Sep 01: The Diglipur area will soon get a major boost from BSNL network. Sources told Andaman Sheekha that the new OFC (Optical Fiber Cable) being laid from Port Blair to Diglipur will be completed within this month.
Present OFC which is already there, is two decades old and damaged in many places due to landslides, there are many cuts and joints due to various reasons.
