+  * ITC bandwidth consumption
+  *
+  * Total bandwidth consumption: 3,440 Gbps (March 2023)
+  * Bandwidth consumption from SEA-ME-WE 5: 1,400 Gbps
+  * Bandwidth consumption from SEA-ME-WE 4: 650 Gbps
+  * Data consumption trends
+  *
+  * Data consumption in Bangladesh is growing rapidly, with an estimated annual growth rate of 30%.
+  * The main drivers of data consumption growth are the increasing use of mobile internet, video streaming, and social media.
+  * ITC is working to meet the growing demand for bandwidth by investing in new submarine cables and other infrastructure.
+  * It is expected that the bandwidth consumption in Bangladesh will continue to grow in the coming years. This will put increasing pressure on the existing submarine cables. ITC is planning to build a new submarine cable, SEA-ME-WE 6, which will provide additional bandwidth capacity to Bangladesh.
