CAA Protests : Kejriwal launches Free WiFi scheme amid internet shutdown

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday launched a free WiFi scheme in the city.

The scheme was, however, rolled out on a day when the telecom operators, on the instructions of the Delhi Police, suspended Internet, voice and messaging services in parts of Delhi-NCR region, following protests against the amended Citizenship Law.

Kejriwal said it was paradoxical that Internet services were shut by authorities on a day when free Wifi scheme was launched.

Under the free- WiFi scheme, hotspots will be set up across the city.

Telecom operators on Thursday suspended internet, voice and messaging services in parts of Delhi-NCR following instructions from the police in the wake of protests against anti-Citizenship Amendment Act.

The Delhi CM said people in the country were “scared” as 70 per cent of them have no documents to prove their citizenship.
