It is also being said the service will be allowing users to access free Internet at high speeds for first 34 minutes and later the speed will reduce. However, the connectivity will remain.

This definitely looks to be a very interesting initiative and also is a step closer to the Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Digital India.

However, it is expected that the first phase of the project shall be up and running in a span of 4 months.
