India dismisses Elon Musk's claims of Starlink launch discrimination
India's Ministry of Communications responded to Elon Musk's accusations that regulatory barriers are unfairly blocking Starlink's entry into the country. The ministry stated that all satellite operators, including Starlink, are subject to the same regulatory procedures and security assessments before obtaining spectrum licenses. Despite years of efforts and partnerships with local telecom firms, Starlink has yet to commence commercial services in India, which has over a billion internet users.
