|
| |
| ==Name==
| |
| The name ''Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited'' derives from [[Hindi]], which means ''India Communications Corporation Limited'' in English.
| |
|
| |
| ==History==
| |
| Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited is India's [[Government of India|government enterprise]] and its history can be traced back to the [[Presidencies and provinces of British India|British India]]. The foundation of telecom network in India was laid by the British sometime during the 19th century. During the British era, the first telegraph line was established between [[Calcutta]] and Diamond Harbour in 1850. The British [[East India Company]] started using the telegraph in 1851 and until 1854 telegraph lines were laid across the country. In 1854, the telegraph service was opened to the public and the first telegram was sent from Mumbai to Pune. In 1885, the [[Indian Telegraph Act, 1885|Indian Telegraph Act]] was passed by the [[Imperial Legislative Council|British Imperial Legislative Council]]. After the bifurcation of Post and Telegraph department in the 1980s, the creation of [[Department of Telecommunications|Department of Telecom]] eventually led to the emergence of the [[Government of India|government owned telegraph and telephone enterprise]] which led to the foundation of BSNL.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bsnl.co.in/opencms/bsnl/BSNL/about_us/company/about_bsnl.html|title=About us|date=17 November 2019|publisher=BSNL, LLC}}</ref>
| |
|
| |
| For 160 years, BSNL had operated the public telegram service. In 2010 the telex network between its 182 offices was replaced with the "Web Based Telegram Messaging System" which relied on internet connections rather than telex lines (which are more reliable where power outages are more common). This led to a decline in service, and the company applied the title "diminished service" to telegrams in 2010. Finally on 15 July 2013 the public telegram service was shut down completely.<ref name="times">{{cite news |title = BSNL decides to discontinue 160-year-old telegram service | url = http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2013-06-12/india/39924887_1_telegram-telegraph-offices-telecom-employees | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130615032137/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2013-06-12/india/39924887_1_telegram-telegraph-offices-telecom-employees | url-status = dead | archive-date = 15 June 2013 | date = 12 June 2013 |work = [[The Times of India]] | access-date = 13 June 2013 }}</ref><ref name="hindu">{{cite news | last = Joshi| first = Sandeep| title = Dot, dash, full stop: Telegram service ends July 15 | url = http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/bsnl-to-shut-down-telegram-services-from-june-15/article4806921.ece | work = The Hindu | date = 12 June 2013 | access-date = 13 June 2013 | location = Chennai, India}}</ref>
