Google has unveiled its special initiative wherein country's oldest and biggest wholesale market, Chandni Chowk will be switched online. In the process, the search giant has built over 2,500 free websites for businesses operating from the market.
This initiative was launched by the Union Minister of Communications and IT, Kapil Sibal, who said, “Internet is becoming an engine of economic growth and is expected to contribute over $100 billion by 2015 to India’s GDP. I am happy to note that due to initiatives such as these small and medium businesses are embracing the Internet to increase their competitiveness in the global economy. I would like to congratulate all these businesses from Chandni Chowk who got a website from Google’s initiative and hope that many more businesses will adopt the Internet.”

Rajan Anandan, VP and managing director, Sales and Operations, Google India, said, “For a business, having a website today is as important as having a mobile phone. And as part of our commitment to build over 500,000 free websites for small and medium businesses in India - we’re thrilled to share that we have now created over 150,000 websites for small and medium businesses across 7,850 cities in India within a year."
The search-engine giant has joined hands with HotGator, who have went to each of the 2,500 shops in the market and build them websites free of cost. In addition to creating these websites for businesses, Google India also launched a common website www.chandnichowknowonline.in, which provides an easy to navigate directory of all businesses from Chandni Chowk that now have a website.
