Trai's PM-WANI Rules Criticized for Maintaining Status Quo

The government's plan to create Wi-Fi hotspots across India is not working as intended.

The rules set by the telecom regulator are keeping the current problems in place.

Very few hotspots have been set up, and the plan hasn't taken off because it's not profitable for small businesses to offer Wi-Fi.

The current pricing is too high, and the regulator should have looked at cheaper ways to provide internet.

Without changes, the plan will continue to struggle.
