Starlink Nears Approval for Indian Internet Skies

• Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet venture is inching closer to receiving a license to operate in India.
• This would make Starlink the third company, after OneWeb and Jio Satellite, to offer satellite internet services in the country.
• The approval, expected early next week, could bring high-speed internet access to remote and underserved regions of India.
• Starlink's constellation of low-earth orbit satellites aims to bridge the digital divide by offering internet connectivity in areas with limited or no terrestrial infrastructure.
• With its arrival, Starlink will face competition from existing players like Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio, but could also potentially spark innovation and price competition in the Indian internet market.
