MP Police drop BSNL, shift to Airtel for better network

The Madhya Pradesh Police has initiated a major shift in its internal communication system by deciding to discontinue the use of Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) SIM cards and migrate all official connections to Airtel.

This marks the end of nearly four decades of reliance on BSNL’s network, which had long served as the backbone of communication for police personnel across the state. However, persistent network issues, frequent call drops, and poor data services, especially in remote and rural areas, have compelled the police force to make this long-pending change.
