The ambitious 'fibre to home' project to provide internet connectivity to each household in Goa, which has seen several delays, will soon recommence, state Information Technology minister Rohan Khaunte said on Friday.

He told reporters the status of the project and commencement details will be had after he chairs a review meeting with officials next week.

There have been some issues related to internet connectivity in Goa, but these would be solved after the implementation of the state government's 'mobile tower policy', he added.

''Internet has become like a fundamental right. Every household needs it. Our fibre to home project will be a game changer,'' the minister said.
