About RoW

The telecommunication Right of Way for Assam published as ‘Guidelines for granting Right of Way (RoW) to Telegraph Infrastructure in Assam, 2018’ are in place to simplify and streamline the clearance process of RoW approvals for overground and underground telecom infrastructure, resulting in better connectivity thus strengthening core Information and Communication Infrastructure across the state. A comprehensive digital transition of these Guidelines has been attempted for coming up with a Single Window Clearance System namely the Assam RoW Portal for the applicant telecom licensees as well as the application processing government stakeholders in the district. Moreover, this Portal ushers a 360 degree transparency at the State Level Government Stakeholders for monitoring the status of RoW applications processing in the districts even at granular levels thus bringing in clarity and effectiveness in the whole process and enhancing the Broadband Readiness Index (BRI) as an outcome.
