“With Starlink joining hands with Maharashtra, we are bridging

 Devendra Fadnavis, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra:

 

“With Starlink joining hands with Maharashtra, we are bridging the last digital divide connecting every village, every school, and every health centre, no matter how remote. This partnership reflects our commitment to build a truly connected, future-ready Maharashtra. We are proud to be India’s first state to launch this collaboration and set the benchmark for Digital India at the grassroots.”

 

The Maharashtra–Starlink collaboration supports the state’s flagship Digital Maharashtra mission and integrates with its EV, Coastal Development, and Disaster Resilience programs.

 

The pilot phase will focus on:

 

            •           Connecting government and tribal schools, Aaple Sarkar centers, and PHCs

 

            •           Enhancing disaster response communications and coastal surveillance

 

            •           Supporting education and healthcare delivery through high-speed satellite connectivity

 

            •           Building local capacity and training programs for state agencies and communities

 

Once the pilot concludes, the initiative will scale across the state, positioning Maharashtra as a national leader in satellite-enabled digital infrastructure
