wifiWorking on providing Wi-Fi at 400 railway stations across India will be completed next year, Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu said. “We are tying up with Google for providing WiFi at 400 railways stations across the country. We have started with Mumbai Central Station. This Wi-Fi will have the fastest speed across the world among public Wi-Fi’s,” Prabhu said.
The deployment of Wi-Fi networks started in October 2015 with Mumbai Central being the first station where Wi-Fi was installed.
