Srinagar, June 9: Bharti Airtel has signed a global arrangement with Opera Software to offer customized and co-branded version of Opera Mini internet browser for its mobile customers across all operations.
With this, over 253 million Airtel customers in India, South Asia and Africa will now be able to leverage Opera Mini’s unique proxy-server-based technology to compress data by up to 90 per cent and decrease their data transfer costs, the company in a statement said.
Designed for speed and ease of use, Opera Mini provides remarkably fast browsing on nearly any mobile phone, it said.

We are confident that this association will be instrumental in helping us deliver a truly customized, enhanced and optimized browsing experience for our data users,” said K Srinivas, President – Consumer Business, Bharti Airtel.
