Might this be true?

This is the (tidal) wave of the future for Indian advancement as they embrace the way the world is evolving rather the stick with old ways of doing things.
One primary reason I invest in India is that their nation is poised to reign as a superpower in the next 'industrial revolution' except this time it will be global and involve transfer of information as well as goods and services.
This bodes well for Indian investors.

I don't see this by 2009. As of now, broadband providers virtually rob customers for measly 256 K and STUPID 'upto' 2mbps plans. If the govt. were to give internet for free, it'd be these ISPs to protest like hell. What'd happen to Airtel? Reliance? Indicom? .. I don't think this is viable..
Unless the govt. provides some stupid 200 MB FREE limited plan at 2mbps .. :D ..
Considering past BSNL plans, this is possible

I agree, many ISPs will close if the goverment implements this. So i dont think the free broadband will happen.

At present I think BSNL's services has been very good.

They had upgrade all 256 kbps broadband connection to 2mbps last month as scheduled earlier.

So I think there is a possibility of free broadbrand connection by 2009.

I think we will see a new market place to buy domains in India. Also I think this is only a first we will see a massive online growth the world has never see. I sure this will only serve for the better I just wish they would do something like that in the US.
