SpaceX CEO Elon Musk intensified his criticism of Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani over delays in launching Starlink satellite internet services in India. In a sarcastic post on X, Musk addressed Ambani as “Prime Minister Ambani,” alleging that powerful business interests were restricting competition. He argued that Starlink could improve internet access for underserved communities, helping students access education and small businesses reach global markets. The Indian government rejected claims of preferential treatment, citing pending regulatory and security requirements. Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia maintained that India would not allow monopolies in the satellite communications sector.
