The Department of Telecommunications, Ministry of Communications of the Government of India has said that the approvals for 5G trials have been given and that telecom companies will be allotted 5G spectrum for the trials, sometime this week. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"story_para_0\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">This means that telecom companies including Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vi could be in line to get the 5G spectrum for network trials across India. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"story_para_0\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">It is not clear how long the trials are expected to last.
