The Minister said the satellite internet services provider is in process of completing all the requirements and they will get licence once they complete the process.
“They (Starlink) have to comply with all rules to get the licence. You have to look at it from security perspective as well. They are in process of doing it. Once all requirements are met they will get the licence,” Mr. Scindia added.
At present, the government has issued a licence to Bharti Group-backed OneWeb and Jio-SES joint venture, Jio Satellite Communications.
