NEW DELHI: Zero-rental landline phones and free broadband service may soon become a reality, said Union telecom minister Dayanidhi Maran. When asked to specify a time frame, he told DNA: “I have two more years.”
Maran said he would focus on broadband as aggressively as he did on voice telephony sometime ago through the “One India” tariff plan. Although Maran did not elaborate on what he meant by free broadband, it is believed that unlimited download of data would come for free, with perhaps a nominal monthly fee.
