In a phased manner, MTS will be launching seamless HSD services across some of the busiest highways in the country," said Vsevolod Rozanov, president and chief executive officer, MTS India.

He added, "We are the first telecom operator to provide seamless HSD connectivity on Delhi - Jaipur Highway. For enhanced customer experience, the company also plans to put in place a robust retail network along all the activated Superfast Internet Highways."

With the roll out of HSD services on the Delhi - Jaipur stretch of NH-08, MTS customers will be able to enjoy seamless HSD connectivity on their laptops and smartphones.

Apart from the high speed internet, users can also now be able to enjoy Live TV and on demand video channels on the go thanks to the MTS TV.
