NEW DELHI: In a bid to fuel broadband internet proliferation across the country, the government on Wednesday approved setting up of public Wi-Fi networks and access points by local Kirana and neighbourhood shops through public data offices that will not involve any licence, fee or registration.
The public Wi-Fi Access Network Interface will be known as PM-WANI, and it promises to unleash a massive Wi-Fi revolution in the country.
The Cabinet approved setting up of these public Wi-Fi Networks with an architecture involving multiple players -- Public Data Office (PDO), Public Data Office Aggregators and app providers.
