Union minister Jitendra Singh emphasised that the Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya L1 missions symbolise India’s fast-growing development. Union minister Jitendra Singh on Friday credited the success of the Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya L1 missions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s policy of “unlocking the space sector” through public-private partnerships and said even the US and Russia eagerly await for India to share information on these projects. He said Modi’s initiative opened up Sriharikota and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) for public-private partnerships, fostering more than 150 startups in the space sector. “During the last three to four years, we have had more than 150 startups in the space sector. Thanks to this, talented youngsters, who were previously compelled to seek opportunities abroad, are now flourishing in the space sector domestically, Singh said.
