Lt. Gen. AK Bhatt, Director General, Indian Space Association

“We applaud ISRO and NSIL on the successful launch of the LVM3-M3/OneWeb India-2 mission. The completion of last leg of the first-generation LEO constellation of 600+ satellites by Bharti-backed OneWeb has set a significant benchmark for the entire Indian space industry in downstream application of satellite communication in India. This launch is a significant milestone for India to move towards benefiting from remarkable capabilities of LEO connectivity and the spread of space-based internet. This will surely aid in addressing the issue of low fixed broadband penetration and bridge the digital divide in the country’s most remote areas. We are excited about the potential it holds and the positive impact it will have on our nation’s aspirations for digital transformation.”
