The high speed wireless broadband connectivity will offer video conferencing, enabling tele-medicine and tele-education, besides providing other services like payment of utility bills, issue of birth certificates, land records and vehicle registration.
The minister further said that this project will be associated with all the 'common service centres' in rural areas, which are associated with e-Governance projects started by the state governments. In the first phase, BSNL would cover 1000 block headquarters across the country and the remaining block headquarters will be connected through 50,000 common service centres in next phase.

2: Indeed a good move. But, do you know the fact
that they will make tough to subscribe this
service, they will not make it's availability
easy so that you are forced to go and pay
twice or thrice to get same service from any
private operator.

3: This is great news and good to hear that we
as a nation are moving to the next generation
technologies in a rapid stream...

4:But this also they will launch in all the
major cities only. Either BSNL should give
this service to only rural areas not
including municipalities or they should put
restriction on private operators to give for
all rural areas also. Then only all common
people will get all facilities.
