Paderu (ASR district): District Collector Sumit Kumar said that it was a big challenge to build a cell tower in Paderu Agency four to five years ago, but now construction of 542 towers under Paderu division is going on at a fast pace with the initiative of the State government. Timely provision of e-crop booking, e-KYC, and other civic services in the secretariat is possible due to the network facility, he added. They are targeting 2,265 cell towers across the district to provide network facilities to hilltop villages as well, he said.
