It is very much possible but you will see a bandwidth limit something like 50mb or something stupid like that tagged with free broadband.

It is not possible for any government to provide any commercial service on such a large scale free of cost.

This free broadband will actually get them a lot of paid customers in the long run... I guess thats what the stratgy is... the state run broadband providers will get so much business out of this.

yaa i agree wid admin, this cant be practical

I don't think this will be a great success, although they might achieve partial success. Instead of going for big stuffs like that they should try to improve the quality of the services they are providing.

Till that time the Government will change
