In Unnao, Uttar Pradesh, senior BJP leader Brijbhushan Sharan Singh has launched a scathing attack on tech billionaire Elon Musk, linking the recent 'Lahara Do Tiranga' protest by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) to foreign interference.
Allegations of Foreign Conspiracy
Brijbhushan Sharan Singh alleged that the entire agitation is being run at the behest of Elon Musk, calling it a major conspiracy against the nation. He claimed that India is being unfairly compared to countries like Bangladesh and Pakistan, and criticized the protests for attempting to pressure the country's Supreme Court.
He further added that these foreign entities want to conduct business in India strictly on their own terms, which goes against national interests.
The Starlink and Telecom Debate
This controversy unfolds against the backdrop of delays in commercial approval for Elon Musk's satellite internet service, Starlink, in India. Musk had earlier raised questions regarding regulatory hurdles and competition in the Indian telecom market, drawing sharp reactions from domestic players and government officials who maintain that strict adherence to national security and regulatory compliance is mandatory for all foreign operators.
