Question : 1
Consider the following statements regarding the "BharatNet project":
- It will provide broadband connectivity to all the 2.5 lakh gram panchayats
- It is implemented through Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF)
a) (i) only
b) Both (i) & (ii)
c) (ii) only
d) Neither (i) nor (ii)
Answer »Answer: (b)
Bharat Net Project is the new name of National Optical Fibre Network (NOFN) which was launched in October 2011 to provide broadband connectivity to all 2.5 Gram Panchayats. It was renamed to BharatNet in 2015.
The project is planned to be implemented in two phases by Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) like...... BSNL, BBNL, PGCIL, RailTel. The project (infrastructure) is being implemented through Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF)
We need to understand that providing the Network Infrastructure of Optical Fibre is separate and the provision of internet services using that infrastructure is separate. Network Infrastructure is being provided by CPSEs like BSNL/BBNL/PGCIL/RailTel and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) will also be done by these agencies, but Internet services will be provided by Private Internet Service Providers (ISP) or Common Service Centres (CSCs) or Village Level Entrepreneurs.
Wifi Services on BharatNet is free till March 2020, but after that ISP/CSC/ Village level entrepreneurs will start charging.
The fibre infrastructure which was being built through BSNL is now lagging and there are issues and that is why Govt. and NITI Aayog decided to bring in Private Players on the PPP model to create the Fibre Infrastructure. For example, Government will ask a private player that you have to create and operate and maintain the fibre infrastructure for 25 years and you tell me how much money you want and the private player asking for Minimum Money will be given the project. This is called Viability Gap Funding (VGF) and the VGF money will be provided by Govt from the USOF.
Bharat Broadband Network Limited (BBNL) is a Special Purpose Vehicle set up under the Companies Act 2013 by the Government of India under the Administrative Ministry of Communication & IT, Department of Telecommunications for the establishment, management and operation of National Optical Fibre Network (NOFN)/Bharatnet.
It has been mandated to create the National Optical Fiber Network (NOFN) in India for a total of around 2,50,000 Gram Panchayats spread over 6,600 Blocks and 641 Districts.

Consider the following statements about Competition Commission of India;
- Competition Commission of India (CCI) was established with effect from 14th October 2003.
- The goal is to restrict monopoly tendencies and increase competition among public enterprises.
- CCI consists of a chairperson and 6 members appointed by the Central Government.
a) 1 and 2

d) All of these
Answer »Answer: (b)
Competition is the best means of ensuring that the ‘Common Man’ has access to the broadest range of goods and services at the most competitive prices.
With increased competition, producers will have maximum incentive to innovate and specialise. This would result in reduced costs and wider choices for consumers.
Thus the CCI restricts Monopoly and increases competition.

Answer »Answer: (a)
Per capita consumption of polymers products in the country during 2012-13 was low at just 9.7 kg as compared to 109 kg in the USA, 45 kg in China and 32 kg in Brazil.
Thus India is not the highest consumer. The petrochemical industry in India gives a big boost to the small scale industries is the correct statement.
