<h1>Jio Platforms partners with SpaceX's Starlink to expand satellite internet in India, enhancing rural broadband access.</h1> Jio Platforms, led by Mukesh Ambani, has partnered with Elon Musk's SpaceX to offer Starlink's satellite internet services in India. This follows a similar deal by Bharti Airtel with SpaceX. Both telecom giants had previously advocated for spectrum auctions to prevent Musk's venture from obtaining airwaves at lower costs. The agreements aim to enhance broadband access across India, including rural areas, by leveraging Jio's extensive mobile network and Starlink's satellite technology. Starlink is awaiting regulatory approvals to launch in India, with commitments to meet local data security and localisation requirements.
