Kerala has now become the first and only state in the country to have its own internet service.
K-FON – the Kerala Fibre Optic Network – has received the Internet Service Provider (ISP) license from the Department of Telecommunications.
The KFON scheme is envisaged to provide free internet to BPL families and 30,000 government offices.
The previous Left government had 2019 declared internet connection as a basic right and launched the Rs 1,548-crore KFON project.
