To improve mobile phone coverage and services, the district administration and the temple authorities have roped in private operators to erect a few more micro base transmission stations (BTS) in various parts of the Tiruvannamalai town.
Two such towers were visible near Sandhaimedu, where a cattle shandy is being held. These towers are expected to clear network issues in the temple town, during the Karthigai Deepam festival, where thousands of devotees are expected to congregate.
A worker who was involved in the installation work said that steps would be taken to improve the coverage in Tiruvannamalai and its neighbourhood towns.
