Google’s next big plan for India isn’t limited to the urban households, but to reach each and every citizen of this country, regardless of his income, city, etc.
India has become one of the largest databases of internet users in the recent years; however, Google doesn’t seem to be content with it.
It has come up with a never-before big mission to bring every Indian online, and for which, Google has deployed a team of people, led by Google’s Josh Woodward, roaming around on the streets of Mumbai, observing local Mumbaikars, their lifestyle, their habits, their routines, etc.
Your roadside vegetable vendor may still be looking at his phone as a mere means of making and receiving phone calls!
That’s how micro Google intends to go and bring every Indian online.
Digitalizing the entire country would also help such smaller vendors establish the online presence of their business, thus opening up an additional revenue earning avenues for them.
