He was speaking after launching OTT services through the KFON at a function here on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>The KFON\u2019S OTT services are being launched with an initial offering of 29 OTT platforms and 350 digital channels. The service will get access to major OTT platforms including Sony Liv, Jio Hotstar, Amazon Prime Lite, Zee5, FanCode, Discovery+, Hungama TV, Playbox TV, among others. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>The lowest priced plan costing \u20b9444 per month offers Internet at 45 mbps, 22 OTT platforms and 350 digital television channels. The \u20b9599 scheme offers Internet at 55 mbps, 26 OTT platforms and 350 digital television channels. The \u20b9799 scheme offers Internet at 105 mbps, 26 OTT platforms and 350 digital television channels. The \u20b9899 scheme offers Internet at 65 mbps, 29 OTT platforms and 350 digital television channels. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we launched the KFON project, a few people had attempted to scuttle it. Before the launch, they claimed that it would never become a reality. When they realised that the project was on track, they attempted to derail it with fake allegations. Some persons even approached the High Court with this demand, but the High Court asked them whether their litigation is out of public interest or for publicity. The government never gave in to these tactics and implemented the project as intended,\u201d said Mr.Vijayan.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>He said that KFON has ensured high speed Internet access to villages as well as cities. As many as 103 connections have been provided in the tribal villages of Kottur and 396 connections in Attappadi. All government offices, the legislative Assembly and the Secretariat are currently using KFON connections, he said. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>Across the State, the total Internet connections through KFON now stand at 1.15 lakh, with a total of 74,203 home connections, 23,163 connections to government offices, 14,194 connections to below poverty line families, 3,044 enterprise connections, 10 darkfiber connections and 15 connections for special events.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE<\/p>\n<p class=\"publish-time-new\"> Published &#8211; August 21, 2025 09:11 pm IST<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan launching KFON OTT services The Kerala Fiber Optic Network Ltd (KFON), the Kerala government\u2019s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":362464,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3161],"tags":[3082,127211,127212,127213,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-362463","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-internet","8":"tag-internet","9":"tag-kfon","10":"tag-kfon-ott","11":"tag-kfon-ott-tariffs","12":"tag-technology","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115067679295857038","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=362463"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/362463\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/362464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=362463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=362463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=362463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
