Facebook said that it would continue to lobby for its scheme.
Facebook attempted to address such concerns by saying it would allow more
services to join, but the firm's founder Mark Zuckerberg warned it was "not sustainable to offer the whole internet for free".
In recent weeks Facebook has stepped up its campaign by paying for
billboard adverts and full-page ads in newspapers. In addition, it has texted users and shown a notice when locals sign into its platform urging them to contact TRAI and tell it they support the Free Basics initiative.
So evil...
