[Bapun]

Tired of poor broadband speeds and painfully slow downloads? That's about to change soon, with the government looking to mandate a four-fold increase in the minimum broadband speed--from 512 kbps (kilobits per second) to 2 mbps (megabits per second), reports Pankaj Doval."I propose to take up the matter with the communications ministry ," IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad told TOI. "We will consider laying down a policy to increase the minimum broadband speed from the current levels," he added.
