Adding to the frustration, Airtel has yet to release an official statement explaining the cause of the outage or offering an estimated timeline for restoring services. This silence has left many customers demanding better communication and faster resolution.
A social media post suggested the company aims to resolve the issue by 2:20 PM, but this has not been officially confirmed. Affected users are advised to monitor Airtel’s social media channels for updates regarding the restoration of services.
