Under the European Union’s Digital Agenda for Europe, all member states are to offer a minimum level of 30Mbps broadband to everybody by 2020. (Some countries, like Denmark and Finland, are already nearly there.) But last month, over $9 billion designated to accelerate this broadband deployment was slashed from the EU budget as part of massive budget cuts. The cuts have raised doubt about whether the soon-to-be-28-member-nation group will make the 30Mbps goal. But Neelie Kroes, the EU’s Commissioner for the Digital Agenda, is still intent on getting to that ambitious target.
 
So..India would get 30/10= 3 Mbps by 2020 😛layful:

European Commission proposes major step forward for telecoms single market
EU-wide and roaming-free mobile plans;
Simpler rules to help companies invest more and expand across borders;
First-ever EU-wide protection of net neutrality;
Abolishing premiums for international phone calls within Europe
I think with a single market even their 4g market will get very competitive and thus old providers getting pushed out in favour of reasonable-priced providers. A country like Romania has much better internet penetration and speeds than Germany!

I beg of you, please inform them that 512kbps is broadband and is sufficient enough for everyone.
