Reviewing the company's performance on Tuesday, he said the company had extended its operations to 400 urban and semi-urban areas in the State and 9,700 villages. "AP has an estimated 28,000 villages and we have, so far, covered more than one-third of them," he said. He said the company had built up infrastructure in a big way and optical fibre cable had been laid covering an area of 9,500 km. He said that teething problems had been overcome and "it is our aim to provide qualitative coverage.
