  "account": "Elon Musk has questioned whether billionaire Mukesh Ambani is the real power behind India's satellite internet scene as his company Starlink battles for approval to launch in the country. The remarks came after Musk accused unnamed influential business figures of attempting to block Starlink's entry into India. Ambani, whose Reliance conglomerate owns India's largest mobile network operator Jio, has not commented on Musk's allegations. The dispute intensifies as competition heats up in India's satellite internet market, with both Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel preparing to launch services. Starlink has partnered with both companies, agreeing to distribute equipment and services in India on condition of government approval.",
  "summary": "Musk has taken pot-shots at Reliance owner Mukesh Ambani as Starlink struggles to launch in India.",
