BEL Partners with VVDN for Wi-Fi and 5G Development
BEL, a company that makes electronics for the Indian Armed Forces, is teaming up with VVDN Technologies.
They will work together to build better Wi-Fi and 5G systems.

The partnership will also involve creating software, radar, and naval systems, as well as improving railway technology.
This is part of a bigger plan to boost India's technology sector and create jobs.
Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) partnered with VVDN Technologies to develop Wi-Fi and 5G networking subsystems.
The collaboration aims to enhance self-reliance in defence and professional electronics.
The partnership includes software, radar, naval systems, and applications in railways.
