Citizens can now access the internet from their laptops while sitting in Sambhaji park on J.M. road. The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) successfully took its first step towards making Pune the first ‘unwired’ city of the country here on Monday.
The ambitious Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (Wimax) project announced by municipal commissioner Nitin Kareer last year took off on Monday for areas near Sambhaji Park and the PMC headquarters.
The project, which is being implemented by both Intel Technology Private Ltd and Microsense, the technical advisors and service providers respectively, will be extended to an area of 20 sq km area including Deccan Gymkhana, Aundh, Baner and Model colony within four months. The entire city will be covered in the next 12 to 18 months, said Kareer at the function to launch the project.
Union agriculture minister Sharad Pawar, the chief guest for the function said that the project initiated by PMC will be useful to all sections of society and professionals from all fields.
“A lot of avenues will open up for the youth with the initiation of this revolutionary project. Pune is leaping forward in the field of information technology, biotechnology and nanotechnology. Wireless connectivity will surely help boost these fields further,” Pawar said. Explaining the technicalities of the project, Kareer said it was an attempt to provide easy internet access to citizens in all open spaces in the city at affordable rates.
“Currently, the service will be provided free of cost. When it is extended to the 20 sq km area, the project will be commercially launched and nominal user charges will be charged for which the modalities have to be worked out,” Kareer said.
He pointed out that the project will be useful to schools and that municipal schools will also be covered under it. “The PMC will pay the user charges for municipal schools. Some 30 schools falling in the areas covered in the first phase will have access,” he said.
