BSNL provides an internet service known as Bharat Air Fibre. It is a free band internet service which means any of the operators are free to use it to provide telecom services. The best thing about this is that it requires no wired connection for getting internet. People can just connect to the network if they are in the area where the service is available and take advantage of high-speed internet. BSNL has been expanding its operations throughout the country very fast. The Bharat Air Fibre service is helping the telco in expanding into rural areas as well.
