Hi
Andaman and Nicobar Islands used to be the only place in India where whole telephony network was built on satellite signals. It was durung pre-mobile days. No wonder the demand for mobile is dense here.
I’ve experience of staying at Port Blair for almost three years between 1995-1998 and I can really find it interesting.
By the by, I’ve written a Short story book, wholly devoted to Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Mr RUSKIN BOND has written foreword for it.
Please visit my site http://remixoforchid.blogspot.com to know more about my effort and comment on it.
Thanks.
Sincertely
Nanda
