'Starlink must resolve issues'

The government is "happy to give" a licence to Elon Musk's Starlink as long as it complies with the conditions laid down for offering services in India and addresses security concerns, telecom minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said on Tuesday.

"They (Starlink) are in the process of addressing the (security) concerns, and they have to check all the boxes," Scindia said in a media briefing, noting that the SpaceX-owned satellite broadband provider's application was under process. He did not elaborate on the security concerns the Indian government has raised with Starlink.
