Now, access the Internet while on the move
Can't live without the Internet while on the move? The Indian Railways is contemplating to introduce Wi-Fi in select Indian trains. You have a good reason to believe this since this information comes from minister of state for ministry of railways, E. Ahamed.
The facility of Internet services by using Wi-Fi system was demonstrated on trial basis in Mumbai-Ahmedabad Shatabdi Express train from Jan. 11-24 and this was found successful, says a press release published on a government website.
Following this, the proposal is under consideration to provide this facility in select trains. However, when exactly will this commence is not specified.
When started, passengers of the Indian Railway will be able to access Internet on train via a password protected account. Payment mode will be the user's credit card. Users also have the option to use data cards for Internet on the move.
Although a good initiative, how many of us would really rely on Wi-Fi on select trains?
