dc.description.abstractIndia has the world’s second-largest wireless network with 261.09 million connections. This figure dwarfs fixed-line connections, which stand at 39.42 million (2007). This year’s report for Global Information Society Watch (GISWatch) looks at the theme of access, focusing on physical access to technology, and the legal and regulatory framework, with special reference to community radio and ICTs in education policies. The one point which stands out in this year’s report is the phenomenal increase in rural teledensity, which has gone up from 2% to 8% over the period of a year.en
