Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg meets The Prime Minister Narendra Modi
India could be the first country in which Facebook deploys drones to provide broadband connectivity in remote and inaccessible areas, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg proposing a pilot project to bridge this digital divide during his meeting with communications and information technology minister Ravi Shankar Prasad
He proposed that Facebook could contribute to India's Rs 21,000-crore NOFN project on last-mile connectivity. He spoke of alternate technology such as drones and satellite communications playing a critical part in this last-mile linkage.
"Zuckerberg is excited about Digital India initiative. I requested him to identify certain areas where Facebook can help us in that. I also requested Mr. Zuckerberg to identify how Facebook can help promote India's rich tourist potential across the world," he said.
Stressing on the importance of connectivity, Zuckerberg had said while India has about 243 million Internet users and have 100 million plus Facebook users, there are over a billion people in the country who do not have access to the net.

“One
of the things I am really excited about is that the PM has this whole
Digital India initiative. We can’t create connectivity around the world
just by ourselves, we are trying to work with operators, governments. I
am mostly interested in hearing and learning about how we can help. I
believe there are certain things that Facebook can uniquely bring,” he
had said. - See more at:
