Haldia, Dantan & Tamluk stations of S.E.Railway now have free Wi-Fi facility<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kolkata:<\/strong>\u00a0RailTel Corporation of India Ltd.,\u00a0<\/strong>a PSU under Ministry of Railways, has successfully turned 3 more railways stations of South Eastern Railways into free Wi-Fi Zone The newly commissioned stations are Haldia, Dantan and Tamluk. Now 14 stations of South Eastern Railways have free Wi-Fi. The Wi-fi at the stations has proved to be a boon for the passengers and in the month of February 2019 a total number of 539121user logins and 217.18TB aggregated data consumptions have been recorded in the stations of South Eastern Railways.<\/p>\n

Wi-Fi services to passengers are being provided under \u2018RailWire\u2019- the retail Broadband initiative of RailTel. Designed to offer users the best Internet experience, RailWire Wi-Fi will be available to any user who has a smartphone with a working mobile connection for KYC considerations.<\/p>\n

Pan India RailTel has successfully completed work of turning 1050 railways stations across the country into Free Wi-Fi zone. With a vision of turning Railway stations into a platform for Digital inclusion, RailTel Corporation of India Ltd, a Mini Ratna CPSU under the Ministry of Railways, started providing high-speed Wi-Fi service at railway stations. The journey started in January 2016 from Mumbai Central station in Maharashtra being the first station to have the fast & free RailWire Wi-Fi and in a span of mere 2 years 3 months RailTel has completed 1050 stations. In the month of February 2019, the total number of unique users of station Wi-Fi across the country was 11577141 and aggregated data consumption was 9065.27 TB.<\/p>\n

RailTel envisages expanding the network in more stations in the near future. Recently RailTel has roped in Tata Trust for providing Wi-Fi at remaining 4791 B, C, D and E category stations across the country. These stations will have free high-speed RailWire Wi-Fi by RailTel by the end of this year. Once completed all Railway stations (except the halt stations) of Indian Railways will have fast & free RailWire Wi-Fi. These are very small stations catering to mainly rural\/low population density areas.<\/p>\n

There is a visible digital divide between Rural and Urban India and rural populations are deprived of state-of-the-art telecom infrastructure availability as private operators often find it hard due to CAPEX involved.\u00a0 Easy and low-cost availability of Smartphones in the market provides the rural population with low-cost access device but lack of infrastructure becomes a hindrance for them to access high-speed internet. With high-speed Wi-Fi services available at Railway stations of these rural areas now Railway stations will be turned into a hub for digital growth for rural India.<\/p>\n

Talking about the Wi-Fi at the stations of South Eastern Railway, Sri P.S. Mishra, GM\/SER, said \u201cSouth Eastern Railways is an important zone of Indian Railways. Wi-Fi at 14 stations of this zone is proving to be really helpful for the passengers.\u2019<\/p>\n

To use the Wi-Fi, the user has to switch on the Wi-Fi mode in the smartphone and select the RailWire Wi-Fi network. After the RailWire homepage network automatically appears on the smartphone, the user has to enter his or her mobile number on this homepage. The user will get a one-time password (OTP) in the form of SMS in the message box which has to be entered in the home page of RailWire. After entering OTP, users will be able to access high-speed internet & can start internet browsing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
