Facebook is testing a new WiFi model to bring quality Internet access to the rural parts of India.

As mentioned on Facebook's Internet.org website, the company's new project "Express Wi-fi" is already live in India. Aspart of the mission, the company is working with carriers, Internet service providers, and local entrepreneurs to expand Internet connectivity to underserved locations around the world. Facebook plans to expand it to other regions soon.

Facebook is working with products like laser drones to enhance Internet connectivity for users across the world. The move in India comes after the company received a backlash for allegedly violating net neutrality with its Free Basics.

Facebook has not revealed whether the Wi-Fi will provide limited access to a few websites (like its Free Basics), Livemint reported.

The locations where the Express WiFi is being tested have not been disclosed yet. The focus is on building a sustainable economic model for all stakeholders involved so that the local retailer entrepreneurs, operators, ISPs, and Facebook can continue to invest in and operate lasting connectivity.

Express WiFi customers would buy data packs via digital vouchers to access the Internet which the company claims to be fast, reliable and affordable.

Launched in 2014, the Free Basics program was shut down earlier this year by Facebook in India amid a controversy over its violation of net neutrality. Indian telecom regulator TRAI barred operators from charging discriminatory rates for Internet access based on content. However, Facebook continues to run the program in many other countries. Free Basics was launched in February in partnership with one of the leading telecommunications companies in India, Reliance Communications.

If Facebook launches Express WiFi without affecting the net neutrality, the company might finally see success in India.
