State-run BSNL is undertaking a host of promotional offers for the ongoing festive season including reducing video calls rates to the level of voice charges and giving full talk time on top-up recharges.

The video call offer, which started from September 20, will be available for 90 days across the country.

"BSNL mobile customers will be able to enjoy excitement of video calls at voice call charges during current festive season. We have largest 3G coverage in the country which enables the best quality of voice and video calls," BSNL Board Director (CM) Anupam Shrivastava said.
