Airtel Expands Network to Ladakh’s Remote Villages

Bharti Airtel has extended its mobile network to Man and Merak — two remote villages situated near Pangong Lake on Ladakh’s eastern border. With this rollout, Airtel has become the only telecom service provider offering reliable connectivity in this strategically important and geographically challenging region.

The stretch between Man and Merak, nearly 50 km, has long remained without any mobile coverage, leaving residents, tourists and security forces disconnected. The introduction of high-speed mobile services marks a significant milestone for the area.

Bharti Airtel is a leading integrated telecom service provider with operations across Asia and Africa.
