One of the pillars of Digital India is to provide pan-India internet access through broadband highways. In sync to this, BharatNet is being successfully executed to provide optical fiber connection to 2,50,000 Gram Panchayats by 2019. Some experts have suggested that India can leverage its current cable infrastructure to provide last mile internet access via cable lines and ensure internet for all.

In this regard, MyGov is inviting citizens of India to give suggestions on policy and technology infrastructure that can lead to this access revolution, fulfilling the below-mentioned objectives
1) What are the possibilities from policy and technology perspective to maximize the usage of our cable network?
2) What are the potential challenges that could emerge in this process?
3) On comparing opportunities to challenges, does this emerge as a viable option?

Reliance geo का नेटवर्क सभी जगह चालू होंने बाला है इसलिये सरकार को संचार के साधन मे एक पैसे भी खर्च नही करना चाहिये अन्य विकास के मानको पर प्रतिव्यक्ति आय/ ज्यादा जीवन प्रत्यासआ / शिक्षा के बारे मे सोचना चहिये

Bharat Net has been going on for many years now. But the issue is not with technology but speed of implementation. cable network (if fibre) can fuel the Digital India drive and there is surplus of redundant MOD cable network which can be re-used for this.

Considering the time target of 2019 to ensure delivery of this to the masses as a service, the fastest route is no doubt using existing physical cable capillarity and reach. Along the way various options of wireless technology via DTH etc would be a very huge complementing option; especially in the rough and far flung terrains! Legalising such last mile will be the best way to get the ubiquity of reach intended ie 2,50,000 gram panchayats !

Project planning needs to be done keeping in mind of the future. If we can set the networking of cables across the country using cutting edge technology like Fibre optics then it should be in vision with 5G speed and above. One suggestion can be to use the street lights as towers for cable connectivity and nodes and junctions to amplify signals across roads. This will help to monitor, digitally do virtual testing, no loose cables, etc and can be leveraged by private companies in subsidized rate
