The meeting comes against the backdrop of domestic telecom majors such as Airtel being in touch with the US company for the possible launch of satellite telecom services in India. Vodafone Idea has also said that it is in talks with Starlink to provide satellite communication services in India.

Telecom Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia has stated that India needs satellite internet, especially in its rural areas. The minister is of the view that there are many remote corners of the country where you cannot take fibre or mobile connectivity. Consequently, satellite internet can help ensure 100 per cent coverage.

Emphasising the complementary 슬롯사이트� and not competitive 슬롯사이트� role played by these services, Scindia said India was committed to offering consumers terrestrial, fibre, as well as satellite communications.

He also highlighted that if natural disasters destroy telecom towers and fibre networks, satellite communications can play a crucial role in filling the gap during an emergency. Starlink is yet to secure a regulatory license to start operations in India and is awaiting the government슬롯사이트™s new rules on spectrum pricing.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜Stop Starlink Deal슬롯사이트�: CPI(M) Raises National Security Concerns, Opposes Jio and Airtel슬롯사이트™s Deal With Elon Musk슬롯사이트™s Starlink.
