+ You are NOT taking a job from a citizen, rather creating jobs by increasing overal economic output. Plus these people (even vegetarians) SPEND locally.
+ The US has long been benefiting from other countries' brain drain; without it its edge wd collapse. Tesla, Von Braun, von Neumann, Fermi & Einstein did NOT each take the job of a citizen.
+ It the problem is anti-Indian racism, say it, don't play games.

Statement from Reliance Industries

In light of recent remarks about Reliance and the Indian market, we wish to place the facts on record.

Like every Indian enterprise, Reliance has grown in an India that welcomes investment and innovation, homegrown or international, that improve the lives of the people.

That openness rests on the rule of law. As the Government of India has stated, it applies the same process to every applicant, Indian or foreign. Jio's own satellite services await clearances.

At Reliance, we have never feared competition. We see it as the truest test of who serves the customer best. Jio itself entered India's crowded telecom market in 2016 as the newest player, with not a single customer. In just ten years, Jio has earned the trust of over 530 million customers and given Indians some of the best digital infrastructure and most affordable data in the world.

We welcome competition in satellite communications, including Starlink. Every player, Jio included, must serve the people of India and abide by the laws and policies of the land.

Elon, you've officially run out of arguments. Now every Indian who disagrees with you is "Ambani's shill."

Nobody said Starlink is too strong. Nobody's scared of your competition. India's problem is you. A Pentagon contractor building Trump's Golden Dome wants to run internet over Indian soil, and he throws a tantrum every time someone asks who holds the off switch.

Ambani's de facto monopoly?

You SIGNED A DEAL with that monopoly in March 2025 to sell Starlink in India. You didn't have a problem with Ambani when he was your reseller.

You only discovered his monopoly when Jio announced its own satellites.

And let's talk about hypocrisy.

Tesla's biggest factory is in Shanghai. Starlink is banned in China. Have you ever called Xi Jinping a monopolist?

Called Chinese critics shills? Written a sarcastic letter to Prime Minister Xi?

No.

Because Beijing would shut your factory by Monday. India can't, so India gets the insults.

now the math your own fans keep posting starlink could add 100–200 million Indian homes. Starlink is approved for 600 Gbps over India. Split across 100 million homes, that's 6 kilobits per second each. Your revolution is slower than a 1998 dial-up modem. 🤡

If it's too expensive, no one will buy it.

Your own India website showed ₹8,600 a month. A Jio plan costs ₹349. Indians already ran the numbers.

Five days of meltdown. Crime against India. Prime Minister Ambani. collages. And now shills.

The richest man on earth, crying on his own app because a sovereign country wants a security check.

Sit down, elon. Finish the paperwork. India isn't a tesla shareholder you can bully on X.

The US AI bubble is resting on 3 key assumptions: 1- shortage of compute 2- no roadblocks to the infra rollout and 3- there will be ample financing to support the outlandish capex spend assumptions.

Watching Elon Musk this week has been a fascinating character study in the saviour complex of Western tech billionaires.

They arrive in your country selling you the future. Welcome them, and you’re a country that wants progress. Make them wait, and suddenly your people are victims who need rescuing from their own institutions by the chosen one.

It’s a pattern. When Thai rescuers didn’t use the mini-submarine Musk sent for the trapped boys, and diver Vernon Unsworth called the idea impractical, Musk attacked him as the “pedo guy.”

When Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered X to comply with its rulings, Musk called the judge a “dictator.”

The script rarely changes. Only the country does.

The colonial mindset isn’t always about wanting to rule a country. Sometimes it’s the assumption that you arrive as its saviour, and if the country doesn’t immediately recognise you as one, something must be wrong with the country.

🚨ASSAM: HIMASHRI BORO’S UNCLE REVEALS CHILLING DETAILS OF HER FINAL JOURNEY;

👉 Himashri Boro left Assam for Andhra Pradesh on August 13 with a dance group and decided to return home on October 5 as she had an exam on October 10.

👉 After missing her booked train, Himashri reportedly boarded another train compartment with a general ticket.

👉 Her friend Jyoti Choudhury’s male friend Avinash, an Assam native studying in Andhra Pradesh, took Himashri to the railway station, bought her a ticket and helped her board train number 22503 while it was moving.

👉 Soon after boarding, Himashri called Jyoti at 2:39am and said some boys were harassing her and that she was not safe. She asked her friend to make arrangements for her safety.

👉 Jyoti immediately called railway helpline 139 and informed authorities that Himashri was travelling in a particular coach of train number 22503, requesting Railway Police to check on her.

👉 According to her uncle, no railway personnel checked on Himashree after the alert.

👉 The family could not contact Himashri for around 2 hours and 48 minutes, although her phone continued ringing. Suspecting that something had happened, they contacted Panbazar Police Outpost early on October 6.

👉 Panbazar Police allegedly directed the family to approach the GRP or RPF, saying the matter did not fall under its jurisdiction.

👉 The family approached the GRP, which directed them to the RPF. The RPF then began contacting railway personnel and working to obtain CCTV footage from stations along the route.

👉 When the train reached Guwahati Railway Station at around 1 PM the next day, the family checked its compartments and found two of Himashri’s bags, but Himashree was missing.

👉 Some co-passenger allegedly said Himashree was thrown from the moving train, while another passenger claimed she jumped from the train and another said she got down at a certain station.

👉 At around 5 PM, the family reportedly received information from Andhra Pradesh that Himashri’s mobile phone had been switched on. Her phone had reportedly been ringing until around 9 AM on October 6 before becoming unreachable.

👉 The family then asked police to track the mobile phone’s location.

👉 Himashri was later found dead beside a railway track in Andhra Pradesh, with her family now seeking answers over her final movements, the reported harassment call and the conflicting accounts surrounding her disappearance.

Breaking:

The Omani pilot said during his interrogation that he had planned to crash the plane into Ben Gurion Airport.

That is why he attacked the other pilot only while over Jordan, near Israel.

He planned to make a normal landing approach and, in the final seconds, when interception would no longer be possible, crash the plane into the terminal.

The plot was thwarted only thanks to the fateful decision of the injured Indian pilot to open the door at all costs.

[Open Source Intel @Osint613]

NEW: Interrogation of the Omani pilot: the objective was to crash the plane into the terminal building at Ben Gurion Airport.

The assault on the other pilot was timed deliberately. He waited until the aircraft was over Jordan, near Israel, before moving against him.

From that point the plan was to fly a normal landing approach so nothing would appear unusual. Only in the last seconds, once interception was no longer possible, would he turn the aircraft into the terminal.

The plot was thwarted by one decision. The wounded Indian pilot got the cockpit door open at all costs, and that is the only reason the attack did not succeed.

Captain Smit Machchhar is a HERO.

In the face of the gravest danger and despite being seriously injured, he showed immense courage and an unwavering resolve to protect the lives of others.

His valour helped save hundreds of lives and avert a great tragedy.

India is proud of Captain Machchhar.

Praying for his speedy recovery, renewed strength and good health.

My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.

Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.

He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.

I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.
He is a true hero.
