Elon Musk posts on X questioning whether Mukesh Ambani is the “real boss of India,” after earlier remarks accusing “oligarchs” of stalling Starlink’s launch in the country. Several outlets report that Rahul Gandhi responds to Musk’s post on X, making additional comments in a political tone.

The online exchange comes after India’s Ministry of Communications rejects Musk’s allegations. The ministry says Starlink and other satellite communication providers face the same regulatory requirements and that there is no special obstruction for one company. Outlets differ mainly in emphasis: some focus on the personalities and replies on social media, while others foreground the government’s position on regulatory treatment for satellite communications.

Together, the reports show a dispute playing out across both policy and public messaging, with Musk pressing his claims and Indian officials maintaining that licensing and compliance rules apply uniformly.
