India’s 5G rollout didn’t go as planned — but 6G might change everything.

In this episode of The Trending Diary Podcast, we sit down with Satish Jamadagni, Sr. Vice President – Global Standards at Reliance Jio and Chairman at TSDSI, to decode the truth behind 5G, the challenges of connectivity, and India’s roadmap to lead the 6G revolution.

We discuss:

• Why 5G in India (and globally) hasn’t delivered what it promised — and the real reasons behind its limited success.

• The challenges and opportunities shaping 6G — from regulation and architecture to global competition.

• The technological shift from base stations to HAPS (High-Altitude Platforms) to satellite internet.

• How AI is transforming telecom — and where it truly matters.

• Why India has the technical capability to lead 6G, but still needs the right ecosystem and business models.

• The truth about Starlink, Jio, and the future of connectivity in India.

Stay till the end — this episode isn’t just about technology; it’s about India’s next big leap toward global digital leadership.
