According to the data released by the Internet and Mobile Association of India’s (IAMAI) Digital India 2019 report, internet connectivity<\/a> has reached only 31% of Telangana.
When compared to other southern states, Kerala recorded 54%, followed by 47% in Tamil Nadu, 39% in Karnataka and 31% in both Telangana and AP, the IAMAI report said.
Experts TOI spoke to, attributed the trend to lack of access to individuals who stay in rural areas. “Around 40% of the state population is in Hyderabad. We are still an urban state because most of Telangana’s population is in urban areas. So, the issue would be rural connectivity. The way internet connectivity of government programme works is they will give access to schools and gram panchayats at the maximum. But now, Telangana is trying to install fiber optic cables which show that the state is working towards improving the connectivity,” said Srinivas Kodali, a data security researcher.
In contrast to AP and Telangana, several states which play a key role in the IT sector in the country such as Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka recorded a substantial increase in internet penetration when compared to March 2019 and November 2019.
When contacted, IT Secretary Jayesh Ranjan said, “We have started the T-Fiber (Telangana Fiber Grid Project) to create more internet penetration in rural areas. The project is now in the final stages of implementation and we are expecting it to start by August or September this year. Once that is in place, this 31% will become 100%.”
Meanwhile, Hyderabad Software Enterprises Association (Hysea) president Bharani Kumar Aroll pointed out that internet penetration in the state would have improved drastically in 2020 and expects the user base to grow exponentially in the coming years. “Due to work from home (WFH), many techies, who are from Telangana have gone back to their homes and this has also boosted internet penetration in 2020,” he said. In fact, in a recent HYSEA survey that was released earlier in January this year, 25% of the IT companies reported that more than 50% of their Hyderabad workforce is working from outside Hyderabad and more than 50% of the IT players stated that more than 25% of their Hyderabad-based workforce is operating from outside the city.
Aroll also pointed out that apart from the IT sector, where over 90% of the workforce is on WFH, the overall requirement for citizens to carry out transactions online or avail government services have boosted the internet penetration in the state.

海德拉巴:尽管政府的努力来创建一个标记Telangana在信息技术领域和一个合适的基础设施通过改善在线网络,国家仍然是最少的互联网渗透在南方各州和仍然是这个国家中最低的。
公布的数据显示印度的互联网和移动协会(IAMAI)数字印度2019年的报告,网络连接已经达到了建邦者只有31%的纳。
相比其他南部各州,喀拉拉邦记录的54%,其次是47%在泰米尔纳德邦,卡纳塔克邦的39%和31%建邦者在纳和美联社,IAMAI报告说。
专家钢铁洪流说,这一趋势归因于缺乏个人呆在农村地区。“大约40%的国家人口在海德拉巴。我们仍然是一个城市国家建邦者因为大多数纳人口是在城市地区。因此,将农村的连通性问题。政府项目的网络连接的工作方式是他们会给访问学校和克panchayats最大。建邦者但现在,纳试图安装光纤电缆,显示状态是朝着改善连接,“说斯Kodali,数据安全研究员。
建邦者美联社和纳相比,有几个州在IT领域发挥关键作用在马哈拉施特拉邦等国家,泰米尔纳德邦和卡纳塔克邦记录大幅提高互联网普及率相比,2019年3月和2019年11月。
可以联系的时候,秘书Ranjan说,“我们已经开始T-Fiber建邦者(纳纤维网格项目)来创建更多的互联网普及率在农村地区。项目目前正在实现的最后阶段,我们预计从今年8月或9月开始。一旦到位,这31%将成为100%。”
同时,海德拉巴软件企业协会(Hysea)总统Bharani Kumar Aroll指出,互联网普及率的国家将在2020年大幅改善,预计用户群增长指数在未来几年。“由于在家工作(亲密),许多技术人员,建邦者来自纳已经回到家中,这也推动了互联网普及率在2020年,”他说。事实上,在最近的一次HYSEA今年1月早些时候公布的调查,25%的IT公司报道,超过50%的海德拉巴劳动力工作以外的海德拉巴和超过50%的球员表示,超过25%的劳动力产生是操作以外的城市。
Aroll还指出,除了IT行业,超过90%的劳动力在亲密,公民的总体要求进行网上交易或利用政府服务的互联网普及率提高了状态。
