16 May - Telex service was introduced between India and England in 1967

 


The telex service between India and England was introduced on May 16, 1967. This event marked a significant milestone in telecommunications history, as it provided a faster and more reliable means of communication between the two countries compared to traditional methods such as mail or telegrams.

Telex, short for "teleprinter exchange," allowed users to send text-based messages electronically over telecommunication networks. It played a crucial role in facilitating international business transactions, diplomatic communications, and personal correspondence during the latter half of the 20th century.

The introduction of telex service between India and England contributed to the globalization of communication networks and helped foster closer ties between the two nations, both economically and culturally. It was a precursor to modern-day email and instant messaging services, paving the way for the digital communication revolution that would follow in the decades to come.
