India's DoT Requests Security Compliance from Starlink (Elon Musk) and Amazon (Jeff Bezos) for Satellite Communication Services
Nov 2, 2024, 04:00 AM
The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) in India has requested security compliance information from Starlink, owned by Elon Musk, and Amazon, led by Jeff Bezos, as part of their applications to provide satellite communication services in the country. The processing of these applications is currently on hold until both companies meet the specified security conditions. Additionally, it has been noted that companies may need to obtain new licenses to offer satellite communication services in India. In a related development, a public consultation conducted by the Public Utilities Commission in Belize indicated strong support among local individuals and companies for granting a license to Starlink, with only ten objections received, primarily from competitors.
