@bhaveshb2005 extremist term so casually thrown around, these kids don't even understand.
rw extremist will make 2002 happen time and again without reasoning, there's inevident demographics of rw extremist in India!
The crisis facing this country right now is NOT government horrendously crushing civil liberties and imposing an undeclared “emergency” out of nowhere. Nope.
The crisis facing us is an elite group of educated demagogues RABBLE ROUSING public into believing utter LIES to an extent that they want to UPEND the system EVERY 3 WEEKS based on those LIES.
Government has two choices. To allow them to create RUCKUS every time, and when they refuse to put a stop to their INDEFINITE nonsense, forcibly remove them—visuals of which will excite the public even more—as we saw during Dharmendra Pradhan protest; or to not allow them at all in the first place. Gut their chances. Stop them along the way. Detain them till madness seizes. And so on. Clear the way for peaceful public to go about their daily lives.
The latter option has much more restraint imo, and restraint is what government has exercised this time.
That’s how I see it.
All this drama meanwhile is draped into some deluded fight for some revolution and freedom. Analogies from imperial Britain are drawn. Lol. Its martyrdom for false causes and perverted delusion. And the delusion is strengthened by making all claims unfalsifiable in principle. Trusting nothing but the deluded credo.
Fellow deluded nincompoop pals scratch each other’s back, cheer themselves reciprocally as some sort of Bhagat Singh type revolutionaries.
Naaah. Its way base than that bro. Wake up to reality.
Stop pretending CJP protests “are just about accountability bro.”
Fuhrer of CJP claimed SIR deletions cost Kejriwal an election. But Kejriwal lost elections before SIR even happened in Delhi.
Its as if FACTS DON’T MATTER to people AT ALL. Only narrative does.
Its so much into your face, that Fuhrer of CJP is just rabble rousing public every other day for politics, to achieve through ROAD VETO that for which constitutional process exists and is well defined, while daily throwing one gimmick after another.
It AIN’T THAT DEEP, folks.
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.

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.
