132-Foot Mobile Tower and Equipment Reportedly Stolen in Bihar's Buxar DistrictPreviousNext

In Bihar's Buxar district, a 132-foot mobile tower, a 15 kVA generator, and telecom equipment reportedly disappeared from a leased site in Dumraon. The tower, which had stood for nearly 15 years but was non-functional for several years, was found missing when GTL Infrastructure officials visited for repairs. The landowner, Harenath Yadav, stated the lease agreement expired in 2022 and payments stopped, with notices sent to the company. Police have launched an investigation into the alleged theft.
