Sunil Bharti Mittal Claims Bharti Enterprises Ahead of Starlink in India's Satellite Approval Queue

At the Bloomberg New Economy Forum, Bharti Enterprises Chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal said he applied for satellite approval five years ago and is “significantly ahead” of Elon Musk in the queue. He said his ground network has been ready for three years and his satellites have been over India for five years, but he still lacks permission. He said he would be happy to get it a few days before Musk.
