BSNL Introduces VoWiFi Service, Enabling Calls Without Mobile Network Reliance

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has launched a new VoWiFi (Voice over Wi-Fi) service, allowing users to make calls using a Wi-Fi connection instead of a cellular network. This innovative feature is initially available in select regions, positioning BSNL alongside competitors like Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone-Idea, which already offer similar Wi-Fi calling capabilities. The VoWiFi service is designed to enhance connectivity in areas with weak mobile signals, making it particularly useful for users in low-network zones. The service requires compatible smartphones, with the VoWiFi option typically found within the device settings. Notably, BSNL's VoWiFi service is offered at no extra cost, as confirmed by the company. This strategic move aims to improve BSNL's competitive standing in the telecom market.
