Indian Space Policy 2023

Subject : Science and technology

Section: Space technology

Concept :

  • The government approved the Indian Space Policy 2023.

Details of the Space Policy

  • It seeks to institutionalise the private sector participation in the space sector, with ISRO focusing on research and development of advanced space technologies.
  • The policy will allow the private sector to take part in end-to-end space activities that include building satellites, rockets and launch vehicles, data collection and dissemination.
  • The Indian Space Policy-2023, also delineated the roles and responsibilities of ISRO, space sector PSU NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) and Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Center (IN-SPACe).
  • Strategic activities related to the space sector will be carried out by NSIL, a public sector undertaking under the Department of Space, which will work in a demand-driven mode.
  • The INSPACe, created recently, will be the interface between Indian Space Research Organisation and non-governmental entities.
  • The policy also spells out the framework for the private sector to use ISRO facilities for a small charge and encourages them to invest in creating new infrastructure for the sector.
  • ISRO will not do any operational and production work for the space sector and focus its energies on developing new technologies, new systems and research and development.
  • The operational part of ISRO’s missions will be moved to the NewSpace India Limited, a public sector undertaking under the Department of Space.

Significance

  • India’s share in the global space economy was less than two per cent at present and the space policy will help it increase substantially to 10 per cent in the future.
  • It will pave the way forward with much-required clarity in space reforms and augment private industry participation to drive the space economy opportunity for the country.
