Airtel, Voda may file for 5G trial w/o Chinese cos
Telecom operators Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea are likely to file additional applications seeking spectrum for 5G trials in which they will not include Chinese vendors Huawei and ZTE, according to sources. The development comes following government displeasure on including Chinese companies in any project that can have security implications amid the border standoff between the two nations.
