Free Wi-Fi at 7 more stations from today

Starting Monday, lakhs of commuters using the suburban railway network will be able to access free Wi-Fi service at seven stations — four Western and three Central. While the service can be accessed at its highest speed for the first 30 minutes, following which the speed will decrease.

Union railway minister Suresh Prabhu will inaugurate the service for Churchgate, Dadar (Western/Central), Bandra, Bandra Terminus, Khar, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) and Kalyan on Monday.

To access this service, smartphone users will have to register their mobile numbers on the private telecom operator’s page. Following which they will receive a one-time password (OTP) via SMS. This OTP needs to be entered on the login page following which a smartphone user will be granted permission to use free Wi-Fi for 30minutes. However, the speed will dwindle once the user passes the 30-minute mark.

Though the railways intend to charge users for using the service upon consumption of the free bandwidth, the authorities are yet to work out the payment modalities. “So far, we are not charging users for Wi-Fi, but the speed will reduce,” said a railway official, requesting anonymity.

Stating that Wi-Fi at railway stations is the need of the hour, Khar resident Rohit Desi said, “It’s good that the railways are adding this service. Globally, free Wi-Fi is available everywhere, including malls, railway stations and restaurants. I’m glad that it’s happening here as well.”

Other projects

Prabhu will also inaugurate an air-conditioned dormitory at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) and foot-over-bridges (FOBs) at Reay Road, Kings Circle, Kurla (Kasaiwada), Chembur, Karjat and Shahad. The new station building at Borivli, equipped with a booking counter, and a deck area at Goregaon (north-end), with ticketing facility, will allow faster dispersal of commuters.

Modi is like a ‘brother’, says Abbott

“Narendra and I.” Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said this at a joint press conference with his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi after summit talks, while stressing how the two countries were expanding their cooperation in various areas.

The personal warmth Abbott shared with Modi was reflected yet again at a reception at the iconic 161-year-old Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) where he said Modi is like a “brother.”

“Narendra and I,” said Abbott on couple of occasions while referring to the determination of the two leaders to work together to help strengthening of relations.

Abbott had urged world leaders to speak from the heart rather than a script at the summit of the Group of 20 industrialised and major emerging economies at Brisbane.

“If we could use first names, that would be good as well because, whatever disagreements we might have, it helps if there can at least be personal warmth amongst us,” he said.

When Modi, the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Australia in 28 years after Rajiv Gandhi in 1986, made his entry at the G20 Summit venue, he gave Abbott a hearty hug.

Before Modi began his address to lawmakers on Tuesday, Abbott said he was determined to correct the situation where no Indian Prime Minister had addressed the Australian parliament.

He said leaders of several countries have addressed the Parliament but no Indian leader has done it.

“I am personally delighted that this has been been corrected,” Abbott said.

The two leaders had several meetings — both formally and informally — during the East Asia Summit and at the G20 Summit.

“My memorable visit to Australia ends today. A new relationship has begun,” Modi said while speaking at the MCG.
