Cabinet approves 11000 hotspots across Delhi.
This is the single biggest initiative of a govt anywhere in the world providing such a big number of free WiFi hotspots”- @ArvindKejriwal#FreeWiFiInDelhi pic.twitter.com/BJZqU5puEj
CM Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday said that his government had already started the installation of hotspots in the city. He also mentioned that this is the first phase of installation which means that more hotspots will be installed later to cover the whole city.
Users will get 15 GB of free data with a validity of one month. However, it was not mentioned whether there will be paid plans to increase the data limit.
Kejriwal had made the promise of free Wi-Fi for all of Delhi back in 2015.
