Kerala Govt Opting For Chinese Optical Fibre Cables When Indian Made Cables Are Available

  Union Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, has questioned the Kerala government's decision to employ Chinese-made cable or optical fibre for the Kerala Fibre Option Network (K-FON) project. The KFON project, a collaborative effort between the Kerala State Electricity Board and Kerala State IIT Infrastructure Limited, aimed to provide internet connectivity to the entire state as well as free internet to BPL families, but failed to comply with regulations as it made use of cables originating from China.

 Addressing the media over India’s growth in the digital sector in the last nine years, Chandrasekhar pointed out that the country has many optical fibre plants.

 “This optical fibre is a domestically available product. There are many plants in India that manufacture optical fibre. Why did they (Kerala government) need to import from China? What was the pressure? What was the reason,” the minister asked.

 How do we stop the infiltration of the Chinese in our state governments and political parties?
