Before knowing this, let us know how Railways provides free internet facility to the passengers?
How does the Internet work ?
How do you use internet in your mobile? Your answer will be through tower or through satellite but according to you you are right but your answer is completely wrong and you do not know the fact that where does this internet come from?
You will be surprised to know that 99 percent of the entire world's internet cable runs through optical fiber wire and all the countries of the world are connected through the same wire which is called submarine cable and this wire is sent to all the countries through the sea. Countries have been added.
The work of laying these submarine cables is done by big companies, which are called Tier One companies and this wire has been brought to important cities in the coastal areas of all the countries.
After this, this wire has been laid from important cities of the same coastal areas to various cities of India. Which has been laid by BSNL, Jio, Airtel etc. And this is called Tier 2 Company and these communication companies of India have laid their wire and connected it to the submarine cable.
How does Indian Railways provide free internet service?
Now coming to the important point of our topic that how Indian Railways provides free internet service and let me give you an example of it. Suppose you have two computers and you want to exchange files or movies between both the computers, then how will you do it? It will take you hours through Bluetooth or WiFi, but if both computers are connected through wire or cable, you will be able to transfer files in a few minutes.

You will be surprised to know that data from any server in the world is sent or brought for free. This means that the Internet does not cost any money. It is completely free.So the question will come in your mind that if the internet is free then why money is taken from us then the answer is that the tier one company which has invested its money has laid the submarine cable in the sea and that money is taken from us by the tier two company BSNL, Jio, Airtel etc. It is taken and given away after keeping some percentage.
Now you must have understood some things. Let me tell you that in its initial days, Indian Railways was dependent on BSNL for Internet. Later, to increase its reach, Indian Railways started a government PSU company named RailTel in September 2000. of .
Through which high speed optical fiber wire was laid all over India. At present this high speed optical fiber wire is spread for about 45 thousand kilometers. And it is connected to about 5 thousand railway stations, due to which these railway stations have been connected to high speed internet for free. Then after some time, the Railways decided that this facility should also be given to the common people because the Indian Railways had its own high speed optical fiber laid, so the money had to be given only to the Tier One company, so for this the Railways asked Google to do so. A compromise was reached and Google used its high technology to create a secure WiFi Hotspot whose range was kept only till the railway station.Now you must have understood from where Indian Railways gets so much internet that it distributes for free.
