India's Prime Minister Tarun Kapoor has emphasized the importance of providing basic services like communication and broadcasting at the lowest cost, stating that common men have the right to access these services. The summit aims to promote Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) broadcasting as a major disruption in the mobile broadcasting space.
Speaking at 'Driving India's Techade: D2M for Bharat - 5G Broadcast Summit', BSNL chairman and managing director Pravin Kumar Purvar said even direct-to-mobile (D2M) broadcasting, which transmits multimedia content to consumers' smartphones without requiring an active internet connection using a technology that is employed for issuing emergency alerts and assisting in disaster management - too would require towers.

Dot: Kapoor said that the Centre is looking forward to new technologies that can change the service landscape.
