India's internet growth faces undersea issues
India's growing digital economy relies heavily on a limited and aging network of undersea cables that land in Mumbai, carrying up to 95% of its international bandwidth. Most of these cables are over 20 years old and vulnerable to faults, with no domestic repair ships available, increasing reliance on foreign vessels and delaying repairs. Experts warn that a potential cut or fault could disrupt India’s global connectivity, and infrastructure expansion faces bureaucratic hurdles, highlighting the need for more cable landing stations, diversifying routes, and improved repair capacity to support future data demands.
