CHINA's Huawei and ZTE are set to be kept out of India's plans to roll out its 5G networks as relations between the two countries hit a four decade low following deadly border clashes, reported Bloomberg.
India will apply investment rules amended on July 23 that cite national security concerns to restrict bidders from nations it shares land borders with, sources familiar with the issue said, asking not to be identified.
The Indian Ministry of Communications will restart pending discussions on approvals for 5G trials by private companies including Bharti Airtel, Reliance Jio Infocomm, and Vodafone Idea that were delayed by the nationwide lockdown, they said.
The process to auction 5G may spill into next year, according to the officials. A decision on the ban is expected to be announced in a week or two after approval from the prime minister's office, they said.
