Internet

Internet today is not just another means of communication. Those who use Internet know that Internet is POWER. It gives a user not only all kinds of information, but also enables him/her to do things one could not even dream of till recently.

Internet gives to its users so much competitive advantage that those without access will face significant disadvantages. In other words, access to the Internet can enable people in all kinds of ways including providing access to education, removing barriers of distance and remoteness, and enabling one to get all kinds of information and to close business deals. But at the same time, lack of Internet access would put a person at a tremendous disadvantage. Therefore, unless steps are taken to provide Telecom and Internet access widely, one would face accentuation of differences between countries who have provided widespread access and those who have not differences between HAVES and HAVE NOTS within countries, where only a few have Internet access

India today has about 25 million telephones and about 1 million Internet connections for its one billion people. It is obvious that India urgently needs at least 150 to 200 million telephone and Internet connections. Is this expansion from 25 million telephone connection and 1 million Internet connections to 150-200 million telephones and Internet connecti on possible in a short time frame?

India is a country of nearly 1,000,000,000 inhabitants. There are an estimated 250,000,000 middle-class consumers. There were an estimated 50,000 internet connections in early 1998. There were also an estimated 300,000 India-registered Hotmail accounts. This multiple of six parallels personal computer use. Personal computers, which penetrate to the ratio of 1.8 per 1,000 , are typically shared by six people. India Domain Hosts have grown from 7,175 in January 1998 to 13,253 in January 1999 to 14,027 in February 1999*. Network Solutions rates India as the fourth most active source of domain registrations from Asia, and the tenth most active in the world.
