Musk takes sarcastic swipe at India over Starlink access
This story is no longer in the live feed. First reported .
Elon Musk, the head of Tesla and SpaceX, has made public comments about access to India for Starlink, SpaceX’s satellite internet service. The reports describe his remarks as sarcastic and as a call for Starlink to be allowed to compete in the Indian market.
Newswire reports that Musk directed his criticism at Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, sarcastically addressing him as the country’s prime minister and accusing him of preventing Starlink from entering the market. The supplied report does not provide further detail on the accusation or Ambani’s response.
Ada Derana says Musk vowed to offer affordable Starlink service in India, and places the remarks days before Ambani’s Jio IPO, described in its headline as a record offering. The reports provide no additional information about regulatory decisions, a launch timetable or what happens next.
