Starlink, telcos spar over satellite spectrum pricing

Elon Musk's Starlink criticizes Indian telecom operators for demanding auctioned satellite spectrum for urban consumers, calling it self-serving. Starlink argues for reasonable spectrum pricing, while Airtel and others advocate for market rates to ensure a level playing field. They claim Starlink's argument of serving underserved users is a fallacy, as satellite broadband will compete with terrestrial operators in urban areas.
