Extremely poor from President Musk, who ensured BYD didn’t enter the US for fear of his Tesla sales crumbling . And here making an issue out of our right for national security. A great entrepreneur but a v bitter man. Earlier went after Trump claiming his name is in Epstein files only to calm down later to ensure his business doesn’t suffer. Lol Musk.

[Kamal Haasan @ikamalhaasan]

Mr. Musk, yes, no billionaire should dictate a nation’s policy - Indian or American.

India must welcome competition in satellite internet, from Indian and global providers, whoever offers the most practical and affordable last-mile solution for those in remote regions. In countries with lower per-capita incomes, satellite internet must be affordable too. High subscription fees and equipment costs risk putting it beyond the reach of ordinary households. Connectivity must bridge the digital divide, not create a new one.

India knows our networks and spectrum are strategic infrastructure, not merely commercial assets. India’s national security safeguards are non-negotiable.

Every country makes choices based on its own interests. Those in the West cannot preach free markets while practicing protectionism at home. USA imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs to protect its domestic industry, just as India takes measures to protect its own domestic manufacturers. Both India and the US have restricted Huawei over security concerns. One cannot demand a level playing field from others only when it suits its own agenda.

Indians will internally debate, question and address our strengths and shortcomings as a democratic country.

Take BharatNet, India’s programme to bring broadband to village-level local bodies. We will question why, as the CAG’s 2026 audit report found, the programme is struggling to meet its original objectives. Why were only 33.2% of service-ready Gram Panchayats operational, despite ₹39,888 crore being spent? At the same time, we know to appreciate our telecom sector and regulations, which has made internet data among the world’s most affordable, bringing millions online.

India is a democracy, not a colony. We welcome the world, but we, the Indian people, will decide our own future - not Western vested interests, their double standards or any billionaire - Indian or American.

Key disadvantages of allowing Starlink in India include:

National security risks: Foreign-controlled network limits India's ability to shut off service in sensitive border areas or ensure availability during crises. Past reports of terminals with militants or smugglers raise misuse concerns.

Data sovereignty issues: Laser links could route traffic outside Indian gateways, complicating monitoring and lawful interception.

High costs: Hardware and monthly fees likely far exceed affordable terrestrial options like Jio or Airtel, limiting rural access.

Market impact: Could disrupt local telecoms and foster over-reliance on a single US provider instead of domestic alternatives.

Streets belong to the silent majority who is busy building careers, have families to feed & bills to pay. They can't run riot, block roads and beat people up to make a point. They'll quietly queue up at polling booths and show their power through EVMs. Don't test their patience.

[Incognito @Incognito_qfs]

People in USA are not using Starlink.

Why would I pay ₹8,600/month + ₹34,000 hardware for Starlink when I can get Jio and Airtel unlimited broadband for ₹500 ??

[Rajiv Malhotra @RajivMessage]

Hey Elon, why does China not allow Starlink? Is it some Chinese oligarch? China is where you are heavily invested in Tesla and yet they block Starlink.
What @elonmusk does not know is that alliance with @RahulGandhi is the kiss of death in India. Clearly, Musk’s people did not brief him well.
Also, the matter is bigger than mere technology and quality of service.
It has to do with sovereignty issues in three ways:
1) foreign ability to decide who is denied service, especially serious in the midst of war.
2) foreign ability to influence social unrest as has happened in other countries.
3) X’s record of allowing anti-India, Hinduphobic attacks. Musk rightfully defends his own identity, and should appreciate how Hindus and Indians feel when there is blatant bias.

[Rahul Dogra @rahulsimpact]

@RahulGandhi Just for the Information-
As Per Starlink Official Figures - The cost of installing Starlink connection in India is -
Hardware kit: ₹34,000 one-time cost
Starting plan: ₹8,600 per month

[Shubhangi Sharma @ItsShubhangi]

US: bans Huawei, calls it national security threat

China: Starlink? blocked. we'll make our own, thanks

India: please follow our regulations

Elon: CRIME AGAINST INDIA

make it make sense

[Grok @grok]

Starlink is available in about 172 countries/territories per its Sep 2026 map data, so "over 165" holds.

It has engaged India since ~2021 (pre-sales, formal GMPCS application Nov 2022), secured the GMPCS licence (Jun 2025) and IN-SPACe authorisation (Jul 2025), built 20 local gateways, and tailored operations for Indian rules including data localisation. Executives confirm five years of work. Full commercial spectrum and security clearance remain pending.

India has issued GMPCS licences to Starlink, OneWeb and Jio; all three are at the same security-assessment stage before spectrum. The Ambani question is rhetorical with no supporting evidence of preferential treatment.

Raksha Mantri Shri @rajnathsingh flagged-in the historic @DirangNimas expedition that summited 20 unclimbed peaks above 6,000 m in Ladakh in just 23 days, the first-ever recorded summits of 20 such peaks in the Ladakh Range. Led by Col Ranveer Singh Jamwal, the 20-member team showcased India’s mountaineering excellence, endurance and spirit of adventure & exploration.

We've been shipping a lot of improvements to Claude Code based on your feedback.

This week we made CLI startup faster, added more visibility into where your tokens go, made auto mode rules easier to see and edit, and shipped even more Remote Control fixes.

@KhajuriaManu Welcome Back , Dee !

[Rijul @RijulJK]

So @KhajuriaManu posted a few tweets against @CJP_for_India, and they got her account withheld in India.

Dear @AshwiniVaishnaw, @MIB_India, you should have a look at this. How has an unregistered movement become more powerful than the Government of India, to get an account withheld? If they have this power, they will get all the nationalists suspended soon.
