Starlink has entered into agreements with Jio platforms and Bharti Airtel. This can lead to revolutionary changes in telecom services in India. The first advantage will be that the people of those areas will also get fast internet facilities, in which it is not possible to lay fiber cable for broadband services. However, people in India will have to wait a bit for satellite based internet services. Starlink will offer its services at India through Jio platforms and Bharti Airtel only after getting the final approval from SpaceX.
Telecom services will be available in hills and plateau areas
Currently, fiber optics and mobile towers are used to provide internet services in most areas of the country. There is no problem in installing infrastructure for internet services in plains and urban areas, but there is a lot of difficulty in the use of this technology in mountains, deserts and marine areas. Satellite Communication (Satcom) It presents a solution to this problem. Through this, internet services can be offered in those areas where it is not possible to install fiber optics and mobile towers.
Telecom services will not be interrupted by floods and storms
Secondly, many times due to natural disasters like storms and floods, mobile towers and broadband networks suffer a lot of damage. This disrupted internet services. In such a situation the satellite network proves to be very helpful. Satellite communication also helps in increasing the mobile network. The reason for this is that it is possible to connect the remote position base stations to the core telecom network through SATCOM.

Medical and education services will be available in remote areas
The most important thing is that SATCOM supports the Internet of Things (IOT). This machine also supports two machine communication. This makes it easier to contact the remote position oil rigs, mines and agricultural areas. Since, the geographical form of India is such that there are mountains and plateau besides the grounds. In such a situation, internet services can also be offered to those parts of the population from Saatcom, where it is not possible to install broadband and mobile network infrastructure. Experts say that with the help of SATCOM, it will be easier to offer many types of services including healthcare and education in the hilly areas.
