New Delhi. Starlink, a US businessman Alan Musk’s satellite internet service company, has joined hands with Airtel and Jio to sell equipment in India. Recently, after compromising on Airtel and Jio on behalf of Starlink, it seemed that Starlink’s satellite internet service would start in India soon, but according to the news of the English newspaper Times of India, the Modi government has laid a major condition before applying to Elan’s Starlink service. Only after fulfilling this condition, Starlink’s satellite internet service will be started in India.
The newspaper has quoted top sources as saying that the Modi government at the Center has told Starlinks that before starting satellite internet service, a control center in India is set up. Due to having a control center in India, the government will be able to get the necessary information for law and order. Also, if there is unrest or sensitive situation in an area, the satellite internet service of Starlink will also be stopped immediately. Sources have also told the newspaper that the security establishments and agencies implementing the law have got the right to call interception. Starlink control center is also necessary in India, so that the government can get help immediately if needed. If the control center remains in the US, it will delay in complying with the starlink.
With the formation of a control center, the government can also temporarily take that network in its own hands. The control centers of all mobile service companies are also in India. The newspaper quoted the source as saying that the Starlink of Alan Musk has assured the Modi government that it is looking into the matter. Starlink’s application is in the final stages of passing. However, it will also take time to build a control center in India. In such a situation, hardly Starlink’s satellite internet service was found in India early.
