Jio started its 5G beta trials early this month during Dussehra in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Varanasi. The company claimed that users got a speed of 1Gbps during the beta trials. And now, the Chairman of Reliance Industries, Akash Ambani, rolled out the Jio True 5G-based WiFi services from the Nathdwara Temple of Rajasthan earlier this week. The company will offer the Jio True 5G powered WiFi services to its users without charge as part of the Jio Welcome Offer.

The Indian telecom company announced that it would make the services available in high-traffic areas such as educational institutions, religious places, railway stations, bus stands, commercial hubs, and more. In addition, the company noted that the JioTrue5G would expand across more cities; Chennai is the latest city to be added to the Jio Welcome Offer. Reliance had previously launched the Jio True 5G service and the Jio Welcome Offer in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Varanasi.
Jio has said its existing users can get the True 5G service without charge during the Jio Welcome Offer period. Non-Jio users can try the service before they opt for the Jio True 5G services. The company stated that it does not have 5G services limited to the privileged few or those in the big cities. It should be available to every citizen, every home, and every business in India.
Akash Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited, said, "Today, we have powered the first True 5G-enabled WiFi service at the holy town of Nathdwara and the temple of Lord Srinath Ji. With this, we will power many more such locations and allow them to trial our services. In addition, we welcome Chennai as our latest city to be added to the Jio True 5G Welcome Offer."
