IN-SPACe chairman Pawan Goenka says Isro will remain bedrock of Indian space sector, role not diminishing amid reforms.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

BENGALURU: Two days after employee associations representing thousands of Isro<\/a> staff sought a formal written clarification on Isro\u2019s future, Pawan Goenka, chairman, Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) said that Isro will remain the \u201cbedrock of the Indian space sector\u201d.\u201c…Let me say it unequivocally: Isro\u2019s role is by no means diminishing. It will remain the bedrock of the Indian space sector. The reforms since 2020 are about expanding India\u2019s overall space ecosystem. IN-SPACe will facilitate and authorise greater non-govt participation, while NSIL will help commercialise mature capabilities,\u201d he said in a statement.His statement about Space PSU NSIL helping commercialisation of mature capabilities comes at a time when IN-SPACe has been announcing Expressions of Interest (EoIs) and plans to transfer technology to the private sector.In fact, IN-SPACe had even announced an EoI inviting private industry to operate the proposed second spaceport in Kulasekarapattinam in Tamil Nadu, once it has been developed by Isro and the Department of Space.The joint representation by Isro employees had pointed to a recent public statement made by Goenka on Isro eventually \u201cnot manufacturing any launch vehicles\u201d, they asked if his statement \u201crepresents an approved decision of the Govt of India, Space Commission or DoS\u2026 If approved, the date, authority and text of the policy decision may kindly be indicated.\u201d<\/p>\n
