Prime Minister praises rise of private space innovation in India
Launch of Infinity Campus
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Skyroot Aerospace’s new Infinity Campus in Hyderabad through video link. He said India is becoming a leader in satellite launch technology and the private sector is now playing a strong role in innovation.
Modi said this step marks a new phase where private companies can build and launch rockets.
Vikram-1 Rocket
Skyroot’s Vikram-1 will place satellites into low Earth orbit. Modi encouraged young entrepreneurs to keep pushing boundaries as India expands its private space ecosystem.
Skyroot plans to scale up rocket production to meet rising satellite demands.
Campus Capabilities
The new Infinity Campus will support design, testing, and manufacturing of rockets. The facility will help Skyroot build multiple launch vehicles every year.
The government is preparing more funding and research opportunities for students and scientists.
Nuclear Energy Vision
Modi said India aims to reach 100 gigawatts of nuclear energy by 2047. New reforms are being prepared, including changes to the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damage Act.
This will open the door for increased participation by private firms in nuclear energy.
Future of India’s Space Journey
Modi said India’s space programme began small but grew through determination, not resources.
New research centres, strong collaboration, and young innovators will guide India’s next space chapter.
