Hey listen you fucktard @elonmusk : no one gives a monkey’s toss about you. No one. Not in China. Not in India. And not even in your adopted United States. And remember we are India. We invented the Kamasutra so we can screw you in positions that even @SpaceX can’t imagine!

[Aravind @aravind]

Elon Musk's recent thread calling Ambani as PM looks written by a "South Asian", and definitely not like his usual posting style.

Excessive politeness, explanatory style with "so", starting a para with "Also". They are all a give away. Just read them for yourself.

So it seems like a coordinated operation run by the same DS which attacks India's companies and capitalists, but now it's using Elon to make it political.

I am at a loss to understand why Elon is getting influenced this way and letting himself be used to generate animosity with 1.4 billion people.

Especially at a time when his companies are gaining acceptance and good traction in India. If he thinks half the Indians may support him due to politics, he's mistaken.

For the small number of Indians getting carried away politically, and taking side with these foreigners interfering in India's sovereignty:

Do understand Starlink is not being unjustifiably stopped. They are in the same regulatory approval status as India's Jio and Airtel.

They have already got required licenses, setup required infra on the ground, and the distributorship to start operations once the final approval is given. Which is also expected soon along with Jio and Airtel.

But Elon seems to be very frustrated that Starlink wasn't approved two years ago when he clearly could have monopolized Satellite internet in India. Now, with Jio and Airtel competing in parallel for satellite net, it is super tough for Starlink.

So, as an Indian, it is important to understand while getting access to newer tech shouldn't be banned by GoI like pre-1990s India, it is also important to have a choice, competition, and clarity on security implications.

The politicians who have suddenly done a 180 degree in taking sides with Elon are the same who were, two years ago, questioning India even considering allowing Starlink claiming "Modi sold out to Elon."

We need to understand these sudden attacks on PM and India's companies are being done in tandem with other, on the ground, operations in India to destabilize and delegitimize the govt - which too has been completely organized via American social media.

The same Elon talking about how India will benefit with Starlink, when it is actually being considered for approval, doesn't say a word about how China - which bans most American companies in strategic sectors and never even considered Starlink - will benefit from it.

From this alone you can understand the agenda. India has enough services, network, the NDRF, and the Army, who can setup communication anywhere, to save our men women and children during a disaster.

Beware of such white savior syndrome. Need to remind ourselves, East India Company came in saying "Indians will benefit from western trade."

[Sridhar Vembu @svembu]

India has the among the lowest data prices in the world. It is so good that I don't even bother to connect to local Wifi when I travel in India and just tether my phone to work on my computer. Indians routinely have dual SIM phones with large data plans because they are so affordable. Ambani's launch of Jio is directly responsible for the low data prices Indians enjoy.

India has among the lowest drug prices in the world (and going lower still). People who visit India buy medicines to take home quite regularly now.

India has among the lowest cost payment systems in the world in UPI.

On the other hand, Tesla is protected from Chinese competition in the US market, keeping EV prices higher in America than elsewhere.

Prime Minister Modi has worked hard to create a competitive economy where the benefits flow to the average Indian. His government does not tolerate monopolies. He has also actively promoted and encouraged a massive surge in startups and that is the best signal of a highly competitive economy.

Directly due to Modi government policy, Indian startups are making major advances in low cost rockets and that poses a threat to SpaceX the same say the Chinese EVs threaten Tesla.

These are the facts Elon.

[Tejasvi Surya @Tejasvi_Surya]

India needs Modi now, more than ever.

[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.

[Rajeev Chandrasekhar 🇮🇳 @RajeevRC_X]

Dear Elon @elonmusk

You hv certainly stirred up plenty of reaction with ur posts. But this needs a response from me, as did ur “Electronic Voting machines can be hacked” post from some time ago.

As someone who knows a little bit abt Telecom as someone who played a decent-ish role in building Indias wireless sector as an Entrepreneur and then as a policy maker , let me share my thoughts.

It is true that Indias Telecom was a sector beset with opaqueness and corruption for several decades - where cronies ruled under the benevolent love and the politics of ur latest fan (name not withheld - @RahulGandhi )

But under PM @narendramodi , 3 principles govern the tech (including Telecom/Internet) sector.

Open, Safe & Trusted and Accountable.
#OSTA

✅ Open - Free from any monopoly-duopoly. Free and fair competition.

✅ #SafeAndTrusted - Infra, Network , Platforms must be safe and trusted.

✅ Accountable - Every participant should be legally accountable for safety and trust.

I was a MP first and then part of PM @narendramodi jis team when this framework was developed. I have more than a little experience of fighting years of political and bureaucratic opaqueness and corruption, which shaped these principles.
so todays India is not that old crony driven India.

I am not in govt anymore and certainly dont speak for it. But it seems to me that Govt has made it clear: all three satcom licensees are at broadly the same stage of ensuring security clearance by verifying its safety and trust first, then spectrum.

Satellite IP services have many security implications. More so in a country like India which has faced years of Terror and insurgency supported by inmical state actors in our neighbourhood. From 26/11 terror attacks to recent ones in Pahalgam, satcom has been preferred comm for Terrorists. Satellite VOIP and encryption creates more challenges security wise. Not insurmountable but new capabilities and capacity hv to be built to ensure Safety and Trust.

I hv used @Starlink and I think its awesome technology - and represents a new era in mobility innovation. No doubt.

But a country has to plan for itself and its interests before every new choice. Thats what India is doing. Patience is unavoidable and in this case is a necessity.

[Aravind @aravind]

Indians must see more & more posts on SM that talk about "bad internet in India" and "why India needs Starlink."

There is also a possibility of actual disruptions of net services to try push the discomfort levels and public pressure for Starlink.

Since my attached post in 2024, India started considering allowing Starlink so everything was good.

But now that this consideration has been suspended, the psyops and disillusionment through disruption ops will restart.

[Desi king @DesiKing_]

This clown didn’t make a single post about the Indian hero who saved 200 lives, but he’s first in line to post for Elon Musk and starlink.

[Arun Yadav @BeingArun28]

Thank you, Elon.

Your tweet made one thing crystal clear: India’s Prime Minister does not surrender to pressure from any foreign power.

For him, India’s interests always come first. 🇮🇳

[Abhijit Iyer-Mitra @Iyervval]

Notice how Elon interferes in the politics of every country EXCEPT China? Why? Because if he does his supply of rare earth for batteries will end. All this show of “principle & independence” is just a show.

[Abhijit Iyer-Mitra @Iyervval]

Tesla’s market dominance was built based on keeping Chinese EV manufacturers out of America. The sheer lack of self awareness!!

[Dr. Shah @ankitatIIMA]

💥So desparate to support cockroaches with starlink and big tech algorithm friends to cause problems in Bharat 😀

[Mr.Kaindal @mrkaindaluk07]

USA NEEDS UPI
Unfortunately, UPI is blocked by certain oligarchs in order to maintain their monopolistic chokehold on the AMERICANS people. You can guess who they are …

This is a crime against the people of AMERICA

[Dr. Shah @ankitatIIMA]

💥Musk melon doesn't seem to have met our esteemed judges, collegium for appointment and ppl like kapil legal giggle yet.

So he fantasizes that he can define what is crime against Indians 😅

Going by his behavior one fine day he will taste our years' long court visits and permanently settle in Mars 😅

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

स्व से समष्टि तक

[Abhijit Iyer-Mitra @Iyervval]

After the stunt you pulled in Brazil, even supporters like me, don’t want riot instigators like you in my country. You’re a good guy, keep your altruism is America. We’ve suffered more than our fair share of “noble intentions”. Thanks but no thanks 🙏🏾
