Facebook introduced a concept of providing free internet to the users of India and it has been restricted to the reliance subscription users and can access few sites for free. Recently TRAI has temporarily banned the free service offered in India.
There has been many problems ever since the concept of #Net Neutrality has been came to focus and now Facebook announced the free internet in the name of internet.org and the fact is that Reliance users can access to some portals for free.
The actual reason for banning the service in India is that if it comes into action then the Facebook messenger will be the one used by many users and then the competitors can compete which obviously violates the Net Neutrality concept in India.
Thus TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) temporarily banned the Facebook's free internet services to the users in India. Facebook has been asked to detail the act.
Few days back Facebook also made its users to send an automated mail to TRAI supporting for Free Internet services in India which then has been noted as "Accidental" action by Facebook.
There has been many statement that there has been access to Internet free services for users still TRAI bans the service according to sources.
