Govt issues statement as Musk claims Starlink 'blocked by certain oligarchs' in India

"Telecom licences...granted to three Global Mobile Personal Communication by Satellite services based on non-geosynchronous satellite orbit-based satellite communications...to enable...satellite communication services," it added.
