What are some of the public WiFi zones provide by Indian government?

Hi Cunningham, there are several facilities in India where public WiFi can be access. One such locale is in Bangalore, India. The facility is called Namma WiFi can provide Indians with free internet access using their laptops, tablets, or smartphones. To avail of the service, users just need to have an authentication password sent via mobile phone after he registers on the WiFi network. Speed is just 520 Kbps. And usage will be limited for just 3 hours per day. It will be up around 50 Mb of data allocation daily. In 2010, the city of Mysore became the very first city to provide WiFi to the Indians. Aside from these two cities,  Delhi also boasts of public WiFi access but with a nominal fee.
