Anil Ambani led Reliance Communication rolled-out world class GSM-EDGE telecom infrastructure in record time of under 15 months from the time RCom was granted spectrum licence to the time 1 million plus consumers benefited from the low rates and coverage. The sheer scale of the achievement is understood by visualizing the scale of the infrastructure. Each tower installation needs diesel generators - and all the generators combined produce the energy that can power an entire country like Kenya. The fiber optic cables that connect these towers can go around the whole Earth multiple times. And the towers themselves, if stacked one on top of the other, will be 40 times as tall as the Eiffel tower.
