What Gabin said, a VSAT connection, or GPRS connection should still be possible from anywhere in India. I don't see any benefit in having your own satellite in the sky to transfer exam questions of all things. In fact, it's a terribly bad idea because it is way more expensive, much more difficult to maintain, and a single point of failure. Cheeni
