India is one of the countries in the world that has such cheap data.”
2014 में हमारे देश में सिर्फ साढ़े 6 करोड़ ब्रॉडबैंड सब्सक्राइबर्स थे।
आज इनकी संख्या 78 करोड़ से ज्यादा हो चुकी है।
2014 में एक GB डेटा करीब-करीब 200 रुपए का पड़ता था।
आज इसकी कीमत घटकर 11-12 रुपए रह गई है। भारत दुनिया के उन देशों में है जहां इतना सस्ता डेटा है: PM

लेकिन आज देश में रजिस्टर्ड स्टार्ट-अप्स की संख्या भी 70 हजार के आसपास पहुंच रही है।
