that is really good , what about the literacy rate in your country ?
The literacy rate in our country is very high. We have compulsory school attendance (9 years)
I do not know of any areas that have no access.

Free internet is very misleading.
what do you mean by free?
I think I have not mentioned anything such as Free
you said as a right, sorry. Even in the places where it is your right to have internet access have many places that do not have access.
Many citizens also cannot pay for their internet. The countries (some of them) that you have listed also have free internet (no cost).
Okay , thank you for the clarification
Great injustice has been done to Kashmir. This present government has exploited their majority status and are doing all wrong things.
I agree with you , Injustice anywhere is condemnable but modi government has crossed the limits of even human rights violation as well. I am happy there are people around the world who stand with truth and justice.
