We have worked closely with regulators, industry and operators in India for 5+ years, and built a network of dedicated systems, gateways, and other infrastructure all in-country to exclusively serve Indian traffic safely and securely - and all with the requisite government approvals.
Starlink is ready to connect India with high-speed internet.
America’s richest person is working on building Starlink, Neuralink, SpaceX, Grok, and X(twitter).
India’s richest person is working on building Jiomart, Flavoured milk, Campa cola, and Jiohotstar.
We are not the competition of USA, China, Japan, or Russia; in fact, we are not even trying to compete.
Dear Mr. Ambani, Hire 10,000 Indian engineers. Pay them 50 LPA. Build our own X, Instagram, WhatsApp, AWS and ChatGPT. Just move the money from one ice cream business into tech. India doesn't need more cones. It needs code.
To those who claim India has a better Internet Infrastructure than the US :-
I. Internet Architecture
🇺🇸 - Founder, Owner
🇮🇳 - Licensee, Tenant
II. Data Center Capacity
🇺🇸 - 63.8 GW
🇮🇳 - 2.25 GW
III. Hyperscale Cloud :-
🇺🇸 - 100% American (Azure, AWS, Google)
🇮🇳 - 79% American (Azure, AWS, Google) ,17% American Licensed (Jio Cloud), <3% Indian (Zoho)
IV. Networking Chips
🇺🇸 - 100% American (Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, Intel)
🇮🇳 - 100% American (Same), 0% Indian
V. 5G /4G Networking Technology
🇺🇸 - 75% American (Juniper, Cisco, Arista) , 25% Chinese (Huawei, Zte)
🇮🇳 - 0% Indian , 100% Foreign
VI. Submarine Cables
🇺🇸 - Owner , Financier
🇮🇳 - Licensee, Tenant
India's Internet Infrastructure is virtually 100% owned and controlled by US entities to a great extent
Dear Prime Minister Ambani,
Please welcome Starlink into the Indian market. Starlink will not put you out of telecom business. The great people of India deserve options when it comes to internet services and the freedom to choose whichever provider best meets their needs.
Competition is not a threat. It drives innovation, improves services, and ultimately benefits the people of India.
There is room for everyone to compete and succeed.
We can all compete TOGETHER
For some people, @Starlink is a national security threat because their data could be under the control of a foreign country.
But what about @Google Drive, @gmail , @Outlook , @onedrive , and iCloud?
Millions of Indians already trust American companies with their emails, files, and personal data. So why does national security suddenly become a concern only when it comes to Starlink?
If data sovereignty is the real issue, why not switch to Indian alternatives like JioCloud and @Zoho Mail?
You can’t demand digital independence while relying on foreign tech for almost everything. 🤷♂️
Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube: all American. All fine.
Starlink: "national security threat."
Threat to India, or threat to Jio?

The ridiculous arguments by Ambani’s army of Internet shills make no sense
On the one hand, they say Starlink couldn’t possibly compete with the amazing low prices offered by Ambani’s de facto monopoly in India and then, in the same breath, they essentially claim that Starlink would be too strong of a competitor! This is absurd hypocrisy and hyperbole.
The reality is that competition would greatly benefit the average citizen in India by giving them more choices, as it always does. Ambani’s profits will be lower, but he is not going out of business. And, obviously, if Starlink is too expensive in India, no one will buy it, so SpaceX will need to make pricing affordable.
Dear Government of India @PMOIndia ,
Here is a list of American brands you should boycott:
• Apple
• Google
• Microsoft
• Amazon
• Intel
• Dell
• HP
• Adobe
• Meta
• 𝕏 (Twitter)
• Netflix
• Coca-Cola
• PepsiCo
• McDonald’s
• Starbucks
• KFC
• Pizza Hut
• Domino’s Pizza
• Subway
• Burger King
• Kellogg’s
• Mondelez
• Nike
• Levi’s
• Forever 21
• Fossil
• Tommy Hilfiger
• Calvin Klein
• Ford
• General Motors
• Colgate
If you have the guts do it. If not, stop talking and start investing in research and innovation to build Indian alternatives.
A nation that depends on foreign technology cannot become a global technology superpower by 2047.
@RealpushprajX@grok Elon Musk’s losses would be peanuts compared to @narendramodi Modi & BJP IT Cell’s losing their favourite propaganda playground 😂🤣
Dear Prime Minister Ambani,
Please accept my humble apologies for not realizing that you are the real boss of India.
Naturally, you would prefer to maintain your monopolistic exploitation of the great people of India, but would you nonetheless consider allowing Starlink to compete?
There are many areas of India, as there are in all countries, with no Internet access, which denies children the opportunity for education and for small businesses the opportunity to sell their goods to a global market. Starlink would change their lives for the better.
Thank you 🙏
Those who don’t want @Starlink services, forget rural India for a moment. Even in Electronic City Phase 1 in Banglore, @airtelindia and @reliancejio don’t provide broadband coverage, while mobile internet speeds are absolutely pathetic.
Stop defending poor services out of blind loyalty. Do that at home, not at the cost of the country’s progress. India needs faster, reliable internet, and real competition.
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?
Is Ambani the real boss of India?
Unfortunately, we are being blocked by certain oligarchs in order to maintain their monopolistic chokehold on the Indian people. You can guess who they are …
This is a crime against the people of India!
India mein koi 5 minutes number Google kar le to doodh ka doodh paani ka paani ho jaye.
RBI surplus to Govt : ₹2.87 Lakh Crores (US$30 Bn)
Total listed bank profits : ₹4.11 Lakh Crores (US$42 Bn)
NPCI - which runs UPI pre tax ‘surplus’ : ₹ 1,888 crores (US$200 Mn)
To nuksaan kis ka ho raha hai UPI se aur kaunsi subsidy de rahi hai Govt UPI pe jo chubh rahi hai?
Cost of running ATMs and cash logistics in India is ₹30,500 crores (US$ 3.0 Bn). If you want to optimise shut ATMs and promote UPI instead.
Any levy on UPI is just tax collection. UPI is the one scientific achievement of India everyone acknowledges par ab tax ki bali chadhegi.
