Having a billion mobile connections is great, but holding your phone to the sky just to get one bar of signal is a workout we’d all happily skip. Bring on the broadband.
What actually happened
For a teacher-turned-influencer living in a village near Jaipur, the Internet was once the reason to leave home. His mobile phone could get him online, but reliable connectivity for teaching, creating and working was another story. Then came the wireless broadband connection, which meant he could work without relocating. And that raises a fair question. If India already has 1.26 billion mobile connections, why does it need broadband? Because mobile connectivity keeps people connected, broadband can connect homes, businesses and public services.
