The growth of Internet penetration in India and realisation of its full potential is closely tied to the proliferation of broadband services. WLANs created using Wi-Fi technology can be used for extending the "last-mile connectivity" of broadband connections to a wider segment of users. Wi-Fi networks can offer affordable, scalable and versatile technologies that can facilitate the spread of Internet access in rural and urban areas alike.

It is felt that Wi-Fi hotspots can be proliferated in every nook and corner of the country and it should be possible to set up such hotspots by shop owners and unemployed youths. Such a model will work much like a Public Call Office (PCO) with the advantage that the operator of the Wi-Fi hotspot will not be serving the customer physically as all the transactions will happen electronically. ISPs will also be encouraged as there will be an increased consumption of data by the public. The model will also provide a boost to generation of employment in the country.

The objective of this Consultation Paper (CP) is to examine the need of encouraging public Wi-Fi networks in the country from a public policy point of view, discuss the issues in its proliferation and find out solutions for the same.

In this paper, “public Wi-Fi networks” has broader meaning and not limited to the Wi-Fi hotspot created by licensed TSP/ISP at public places. There could be small entrepreneurs or even a very small entity which would like to participate in common and shared Wi-Fi network for larger public use.

The CP raises the issues of various regulatory/licensing or policy measures required to encourage ubiquitous city-wide Wi-Fi networks as well as expansion of Wi-Fi networks in remote or rural areas. The CP also touches upon interoperability between the Wi-Fi networks of different service providers as also between cellular and Wi-Fi networks, frequency bands, payment and authentication procedure to access Wi-Fi.

I must say it would be a great step to provide wifi all around the country and collaborate with global players in skill development of the Young Demographics of our country .It is the time to make the last mile high speed broadband i.e.fibernet for benefit of our entire community .As we have young demographics we need to skill them and make them industry ready so that they could add up to our GDP .I think making these things available will also reduce the information gap among the societies.

It is the great vision of Hon. PM to use latest and advance technology for development, transparancy, speed and accuracy in all types of work. Hence, Public net work system should be speedy having great accuracy level. I suggest that, more competition should be created, more service provider should be added, further, Internet & Wi-Fi facilities should be upgraded, hence, disturbance in operating should be minimum, It should be available to people at minimum and affordable cost, best wishes

Respected Sir, BSNL landline & Broadband service is not good in rural areas. I understand that lack of facilities and environment is not very good for this but in some areas Like nearby all facilities are available still service is not good. Employees are not working properly especially High Profile Officers Like SDO, TT and more than other designation. If customer paying every bill in every month and service is equal to 0. Sir Govt. should be serious about it My area Pishor Kannad aurangabadMH

ISP providing public wifi service should also provide IPv6 connectivity. There are many benefits of enabling IPv6 including low operational cost, Internet of things and supporting huge number of subscribers compare to IPv4. India has this great opportunity for this green field deployment of new era of internet.

Sir, I would like to say that every citizen should have only one mobile number and that should be permanent activation till death. Like aadhaar card. That should be helpful to some departments and radiation effect will automatically decreases. Save people, save India and save environment.
