'Isro not being privatised': Space agency after staff seek clarity on future role
Bengaluru: Following a request from nine Isro employee groups for written clarity on the agency's future role amid space-sector reforms, Isro provided assurance on Sunday that it "would neither be privatised nor would its significance be reduced." The space agency reaffirmed its position as India's principal institution for advanced space R&D, national and strategic missions, exploration, and critical technologies.
Isro emphasized that the involvement of the private sector aims to enable the agency to concentrate on developing India's next-generation space program, while industry scales existing technologies and capabilities.
