Bangladesh to reel from poor internet access until Jan 30
Bangladesh, which has been reeling under poor internet access since January 4, will have to wait until January 30 before normal services resume.
The internet services have been disrupted due to maintenance of work of a submarine cable that comes from India to Bangladesh, The Daily Star reported.
Internet Service Providers’ Association of Bangladesh (ISPAB) had earlier said the disruption would continue till January 20. It had said the services would start working after maintenance of three submarine cables -- Tata Indicom cable, India-Middle East-Western Europe (IMEWE) and Bharti Airtel's i2i Media -- are completed.
