google's proposed free Wi-Fi service for railway stations in India is now available at 10 stations across the country. Google launched the service earlier in the year with Mumbai central station but now Google has added Pune, Bhubaneshwar, Bhopal, Ranchi, Raipur, Vijayawada, Kacheguda (Hyderabad), Ernakulum Jn (Kochi) and Vishakhapatnam.

Google claims that it can reach 1.5 million people with coverage at 10 stations allowing people to access high-speed Internet for free. It also claims that the service is fast enough to enable people to stream high definition video for free on their smartphones.

"The network is now live in ten key stations across the country and we are scaling up our efforts to roll out the network quickly to cover some of smaller stations where connectivity is much more limited. As internet adoption grows in India, easy and affordable access to high-speed networks is the real need of the hour," said Gulzar Azad, head of Access Project, Google
