Domestic telecom gear makers expect the government to clear their dues pending with state-owned telecom firms and come out with provisions to push home grown equipment in the networks, industry body TEMA said in a statement on Saturday.
Telecom Equipment Manufacturers Association - which represents indigenous companies like Vihaan Networks, and Tejas Networks, among others - also requested for clarity on the government push for procurement from domestic vendors through public tender of up to Rs 200 crore, news agency PTI reported.
TEMA Chairman Emeritus NK Goyal said that it is beyond doubt that the Covid-19 crisis has shown that the telecom sector has been at forefront of providing connectivity to all citizens in India.
The chairman expects that the next package from Finance Minister software engineering vs computer science may come for the telecom, electronics, and ICT sectors.
"This sector is looking forward for package tomorrow in terms of specific enforcement of indigenously designed development and manufactured equipment, keeping in view of 'Atma Nirbhar Bharat" mission of our Hon'ble PM," Goyal said.
