USOF   Beneficiaries of USOF Schemes
 
  People in rural and remote areas of the country where ICT services and not available due to commercial non viability on account of various combinations of reasons such as:
  • Sparse population


  • Remoteness of areas


  • Absence of supporting infrastructure (power, road etc.)


  • Low income of inhabitants


  • Insurgency


  • Difficult terrain
  It is here that USOF Administration steps in to provide subsidy support thereby incentivizing telecom service providers to venture forth and provide services to such target beneficiaries.
  UPDATES
The USOF website has been inaugurated by Shri P. J. Thomas, Secretary, Telecom, DoT on 11th May, 2010. Through this website, we wish to put relevant information about USOF in the public domain for the benefit of all the stakeholders. In particular, we wish to streamline the subsidy settlement process and keep service providers fully informed about settlement status.
