Elon Musk steps up Starlink push, asks why India has not given licence; government says all three satcom firms are at same stage

New Delhi: Elon Musk intensified his campaign for Starlink's entry into India's satellite communication (satcom) sector, seemingly identifying at least one of the groups mentioned in his post on the previous day. Starlink is licensed in over 165 countries and has spent five years complying with every single law and requirement of the government of India, so why still no license?

Elon Musk is pushing for Starlink's approval in India while alleging that oligarchs are blocking its entry. He emphasizes that Starlink has complied with all regulations for five years without receiving a license. The government has stated that all involved parties are at the same regulatory stage awaiting security approvals. The ministry insists that compliance with security conditions is mandatory before moving forward.
