Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd on Friday tested its 4G network at the Techfest event in IIT Mumbai campus, by running trials of video calls and Jio Television service, among others.

According to the company, Jio Television has a feature that eliminates the need for recording content.

"LTE is about Learn to Earn. More than 78 percent of Indian content comes from outside. We must work towards shifting content to India. We should look at creating Health Exchanges to create affordable Healthcare supported by broadband," RJIL's President for Strategy and Products, Mathew Oommen said at the event.
