Har-Ki-Pauri goes Wi-Fi, Ardh Kumbh devotees to get free surfing for 15 mins - Times of India
Har-ki-Pauri in Haridwar, where hundreds of pilgrims will converge for the Ardh Kumbh, which is starting on January 14, has been transformed into a Wi-Fi zone. The first 15 minutes of use shall be free of cost and thereafter, depending on need, one can do instant recharge.
Sri Ganga Sabha, which looks after the upkeep of Har-ki-Pauri, felt the need to be a part of "digital India". President of the Sri Ganga Sabha Puroshotam Sharma Gandhiwadi said, "The drive was much needed as we want to spread our mythology among the digitally advanced population of the country. Also, it is our quest to promote Vedic culture in the globe, which in recent years has shown great interest in Hindu mythology. Now, all those spiritually hungry people can see Ganga 'aarti' live from any part of the world through Wi-Fi."
