Oh, the infrastructure has been/is being laid. It's called BharatNet. 154,000 villages (of around 600,000) are now connected using OFC[1] With private service providers in a city, I pay around $15/month for a 150Mbps connection with a 1000GB data cap (after which the speed drops to 1Mbps). I can go up to a 1000Mbps/5500GB plan at around $80. BharatNet will likely be cheaper since it's government run. 1. https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/technology/over-1-54-lakh-gram-panchayats-now-have-high-speed-broadband-infra-ravi-shankar-prasad/2210010/ https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/technology/over-1-...
