Its going to help those under-privileged rural population for whom Internet is still a distance dream. But I could not get details on their pricing. Going through the details, it appears, they sell only prepaid data packages and charge for both Data /Voice. So it should not happen like they charge more in the names of providing the services (or showing as if they are doing a great charity work) and make maximum profit. Rather it should be for a greater cause.
In my place, we just pay for the Voice and Data services are just free, though the speed decreases after certain level ( 1.5 GB per day)

A useful project for the poor and remote areas. It uses solar power and provides uninterrupted 24/7 servicing. Furthermore it provides the flexibility of adding streetlight or a webcam upon requirement.
