Quite the opposite[0].
"Free Basics" was the name of the program, and it only allowed access to Facebook and whatever sites whichever sites Facebook (in all its infinite wisdom) decided were appropriate for the users to visit. The program was eventually found to be in violation of India's neutrality rules and was shut down.
