Which 8 circles? any idea? btw does that means I need t wait at least 3 months to expect fiber to rollout in my city if my city comes under these 8 circles?

@Saifi2649 ITI is a sarkari company, so it will definitely not finish anything in 3 months, it won’t even start work that soon lol. I wonder why Airtel picked up a PSU as a contractor.
