Telecom PSUs BSNL and MTNL will launch their
broadband services throughout the country in January, 2005 at Rs 500 per
month.
While MTNL will launch the services in Delhi and Mumbai, BSNL will launch in
Kolkata, Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad on the same day, January 15th.
In an announcement to the first meeting of the Members of the Consultative
Committee attached, Minister of Communications & Information Technology
Dayanidhi Maran said the department is targeting around 10 million broadband
service users by the year 2007.
It will be another success like the mobile telephone services revolution in
the country, he said. Maran was speaking on the recently announced New
Broadband Policy, which was the main item on the agenda for the meeting.
Though the broadband connection at 256 Kbps costs Rs 3000 in the market the
PSUs have agreed to provide the same services at Rs 500 a month.
While VSAT could be used as small hubs, the Government is also allowing DTH
operators to operate broadband Internet and uplink after fulfilling
necessary licensing conditions. He stated that the Government has relaxed
the conditions for outdoor use of frequencies to promote WiMAX and WiFi.
The New Broadband Policy has been finalised after taking into consideration
all relevant aspects, including the recommendations of TRAI on accelerating
growth of broadband and Internet.
