Out of 25,280 sites in the three districts, 1,687 sites went out of service at the onset of the floods.

Officials of the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) today said the operators are working tirelessly to keep the mobile network fully operational.

They are now working to restore the rest of the dysfunctional sites, said an official.
