00:00Dear friends, there's one more frontier I would like to mention.
00:05Satellite communications.
00:07Jio connected India on the ground.
00:09Now, we must connect India from the skies.
00:13There are still the remotest of villages, island communities, and border outposts where Jio network cannot reach.
00:20For them, satellite connectivity will be the bridge to the rest of India.
00:24Jio is evaluating the development of a sovereign low-Earth orbit satellite constellation for India.
00:32We are also partnering with the leading global constellation providers by leasing satellite capacity so that we can accelerate service
00:41availability while building our own long-term sovereign capability.
00:45This dual approach will enable Jio to meet India's connectivity needs faster while laying the foundation for the Indian satellite
00:55broadband platform of global scale.
00:58To anchor this ambition, Jio is also building its own ground station infrastructure in India.
01:03These ground stations will support our partner constellations as well as our own future satellites, creating an end-to-end
01:11satellite broadband ecosystem from space to ground.
01:15With this initiative, Jio is strengthening India's Atmanir Bhatta in space, placing India firmly on the global satellite broadband services
01:26map.
