Abstract

Abstract : India has long been wary that telecommunications firms from China and the US would come to dominate the sector. After the June 2020 border skirmish with China, India has redoubled its efforts to limit the influence of Chinese firms on its networks, while at the same time relying on funding from China and the US to become an international leader in its own right in 5G technology.
