Press Release: Bhutan Telecom Increases Data Quota to Reduce Pandemic Burden


The Royal Government on August 11, 2020 announced an indefinite lockdown in the nation. This restriction of movement has led to a heightened need for connectivity through the internet and phone services for social, physical, and mental wellbeing.

Bhutan Telecom realizes that there is growing panic and fear regarding the spread of the virus. Given the situation, the citizens are facing major worry over their family and friends’ safety. Even the mental wellbeing has come under threat due to the limitations posed by physical distancing. Further, to break the chain of transmission, it has now become extremely important for people to stay informed with every directive issued by the government.

Additionally, the government, the people, and businesses across the nation are now largely dependent on the internet for an uninterrupted flow of economic and educational activities. In such challenging times, providing accessible and affordable telecommunication services to the nation has become crucial. Keeping such concerns in mind, BT seeks to stand in solidarity with the government and the people to play our part, our Gyenkhu.

Therefore, acknowledging the need of the hour, and prioritizing the safety of the citizens, Bhutan Telecom has revised its data quota. BT customers will now receive increased data volume for the same price. For detailed list of revised plans, please visit www.bt.bt or call 1600.

We urge all citizens to stay informed and connected and do your part in these unprecedented times. Together, we can get through this. Stay home, stay safe!
