Sambalpur: In good news for denizens of Sambalpur city, the district administration has decided to roll out free WiFi services between Ring Road and Samelswari Temple. According to reports, the free WiFi services will be launched across the town in a phased manner.
Welcoming the move, Prabhu Dutta Pujahari, a resident of Sambalpur, said, "These days there is a need for WiFi services everywhere. Earlier WiFi services were available only at the railway station and the GM University in the town. The proposed Ring Road WiFi services will be beneficial to many."
