Airtel Expands Mumbai Network Around Four Ganpati Pandals
Airtel improved its mobile network near four busy Ganpati pandals in Mumbai.
The work was done before Ganesh Utsav began.
Many people use their phones when they visit these places.
They may call family, find meeting points, use maps or share photos.
Large crowds can make phone networks very busy.
Airtel added capacity to help phones work during these crowded times.
People who cannot visit can watch the Lalbaugcha Raja celebration on Airtel Xstream Play.
The goal is to help people stay connected during the festival.
Bharti Airtel expanded and optimised its mobile network around four prominent Mumbai Ganpati pandals.
The upgrades were planned ahead of Ganesh Utsav to handle increased demand from large crowds.
Coverage was augmented around Lalbaugcha Raja, Mumbaicha Raja, Chinchpoklichा Chintamani and Khetwadicha Ganraj.
The added capacity is intended to support calls, mobile data, navigation, video calls and social media sharing.
People unable to attend in person can watch Shree Lalbaugcha Raja 2026 Live Darshan on Airtel Xstream Play.
