According to a media report, ISRO Chief S Somnath suggested that PM Modi could be a candidate for India’s first manned space mission, ‘Gaganyan’, scheduled for launch in 2025. In response, Jairam Ramesh took to ‘X’ and wrote, “Before he goes into space, the non-biological Pradhan Mantri should go to Manipur.” The Gaganyaan project is a significant Space mission of India that aims to demonstrate human spaceflight capability.
