Satcom security clearance pending with MHA: MoS
The Ministry of Home Affairs is currently examining security concerns surrounding satcom services, according to Communications Minister Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani, who spoke at India Mobile Congress 2026. While the Department of Telecom has granted licenses and provisional spectrum to all satcom companies, the Ministry of Home Affairs is still awaiting security clearance for these services.
Pemmasani emphasized that this issue is not specific to any single company, adding that once clearance is obtained, the services will become available.
