Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, on Friday last week, has launched the "Goa Broadband Network" (GBBN) amidst trust and worry about the project’s future.
Formerly called as "Goa Net", the Broadband Network project aspires at setting up a state that is “enabled by IT to be efficient and accountable with a global thinking approach".
GBBN will offer privileges to citizens, which comprise the information about education, healthcare, farming, well-being, amusement, IP telephony, and video conferencing.
It will also provide e-governance as well as B2C (business-to-citizen) services.
The banner behind the big Bollywood hits including “Maine Pyaar Kiya”, “Hum Aapke Hain Kaun” and “Vivaah” will now offer the first ever serial for Indian cell phone users.
Rajat, the younger brother of Sooraj Barjatya who owns Rajshri Productions, has made announcement about the launching of the 90-episode series, which is specifically intended for mobile phones, by the end of January 2008.
Mr. Rajat said, “I hate to use the term first. I would rather say that we are among the first to make a serious attempt at doing this. We have produced a 90-episode series, with three minutes per episode, and it is in the humour genre.”
