National Quantum Mission 1,000-km Quantum Communication Network

completed

As part of the National Quantum Mission, a 1,000-km quantum communication network has been successfully demonstrated within less than two years of its launch. The network enables transmission of information using quantum principles instead of classical binary signals. The milestone was achieved using indigenous technology developed by QNu Labs, a startup supported under the mission focused on quantum-safe cybersecurity solutions. The network is one of the longest quantum key distribution deployments globally and is expected to strengthen secure communication capabilities across defence, financial systems, and critical infrastructure.
