With an aim to promote digital inclusion and socio-economic development in the rural India, Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has launched a scheme to recognize Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for their exceptional efforts in expanding Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) broadband connections in rural areas.
Under this scheme, DoT has decided to recognize nine ISPs, three each of category A, B and C, who have provided maximum number of net additions in rural FTTH Connections in a year. ISPs in category A should achieve a minimum of 50,000 net additions in rural FTTH connections, while ISPs in category B are required to achieve a minimum of 10,000 net additions in rural FTTH connections.
Further, ISPs in category C must achieve a minimum of 2,000 net additions in rural FTTH connections. This initiative reflects the Government of India’s commitment to enhancing digital access and connectivity in rural areas, ultimately driving socio-economic development and inclusive growth across the nation.
