yes..if we replace magnetic ballast with electronic ballast...there is no need of starter if we use electronic ballast.
it will not glow
No, the tubelight will not glow if the starter is removed. The starter is necessary to provide the initial surge of voltage needed to ionize the gas inside the tube and establish the electric arc that produces light. Without the starter, the circuit will not be able to function properly.
yes, special tube lights without starter are available which do not require a spark.
The starter does not strike after establishing the glow in the tube because it is designed to operate only during the initial phase of starting the fluorescent lamp. Once the gas in the tube ionizes and allows current to flow, the starter automatically disconnects from the circuit. This prevents it from interfering with the normal operation of the lamp, allowing the ballast to regulate the current and maintain the light output.
Tube lights glow in white color because they contain a phosphor coating on the inside of the tube that emits white light when excited by electricity. The phosphor coating helps to convert the ultraviolet light produced by the electrical current into visible white light, resulting in the tube light emitting white light.
Starter is asmall device in a fluroscent tube light to start the ciruit. Once lit, starting circuit cuts off automatically
A starter initially provides a path to complete the circuit. The tube light starts when the current flows through the ionized gas in the main tube. woodenboatusa.com

Glow sticks will show up better if you put them in the dark instead of leaving them in the light. Glow sticks are activated by breaking the tube inside and shaking them.
The small cylindrical thing that You see (generally on a side of the choke coil) is the "starter " of the tube light. This is the capacitor used in tube light. And is used to provide a momentary voltage rise of nearly 400V to start up the tube light hence Starter.
The starter should easily fit into the florescent fixture by sliding it into the hole and then securing it by twisting it in place. If you are having issues, you may need to check to ensure that you have the correct size starter for your florescent tube.
The electrons in the mercury arc current in the tube causes the mercury vapor to emit ultraviolet light. The inside surface of the tube is coated with a phosphor that glows with visible light when hit by ultraviolet light.
