The company said that their partnership with Indian Railways to provide Wi-Fi at railway stations has been extremely successful and this has encouraged them to expand the service in other spheres. 

According to Cease Sengupta, Vice President at Google, "Our goal has not just been to help more Indians get online but also to help Indians create the online experience they want; one that serves their needs and enables them to have an impact on the entire world. So we have been thinking about how to build products and services for this wave of new users that work for any level of connectivity, in local Indian languages, and across the devices that are most frequently used in India.”

"The goal is to give people many hot spots within a few minutes’ walk from their home, university, or workplace, unified by a simple login process that works across all of them," Caesar Sengupta added.
