People don't use Asianet in Kerala anymore?

they do, but numbers are much less compared to BSNL. Asianet cable (for TV channels) has good reach, Internet not that much.
most households were having BSNL LL, which they converted to Internet connection, which was easy.
Landline phones still remain but seldom used (poor performance also).
