On Feb 8th 2016, The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) made it's intention crystal clear stating "Any-thing on Internet cannot be differently priced by service providers". This broad point is a needed regulation to craft much awaited Digital-India movement.
Internet and the associated social media applications started reaching rural India in the past two years with impressive connectivity and usage. The schools started leveraging on-line experiments and scenario filled explanations from expert teachers across the globe. The situation, if continues for next three years, is all set to connect an Oxford professor to a student residing in rural India.
Health care sector started uncovering innovative solutions to reach rural India through Internet connectivity. Quality health care is all set to engulf common man, residing in rural India, with trusted and low cost health care. Thus, Internet connectivity is all set to transform MotherIndia's health care, if allowed to exist in existing format.
Internet of things started providing cost effective usage to common man (example, Flipkart, whatsapp, Facebook, Linkedin, Uber, OLA etc. ). End user experience is coming out to be the guiding factor for Internet of things and thus Internet connectivity is all set to transform Digital-India's mission.
Amid these engulfing disruptary innovations, it is important that Mother India experiences Internet of things, through Net Neutrality, to redefine her next orbit of economic development. It certainly helps startup companies in energy, education and healthcare sectors to leap their steps towards prosperity. On this backdrop, TRAI's regulation in this regard is commendable and thus visionary.
Any restrictions on internet usage will certainly hamper common man's zeal to use internet. The pricing model should not lead to current state of cable operator pricing models that currently exist in India.
Let every common man continue to experience and excel using "Net Neutrality" towards nobler goals.. Let us together transform India's econonomic orbit...
