In his service, he was the chief mission architect for successfully launching 104 satellites in a single mission of PSLV. It is really an achievement. He has taken our country to a different height in the space research parallel to a few of the advanced countries.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">He advised students to be alert and careful in retaining their jobs as there are competitions and challenges. “You need to continuously update your skill, knowledge, and talent in your respective field. The success of our alumni is the success of your alma mater. If you become GMs, CEOs, Chairman of a company or industry, the university looks forward, for your repeated visit, to share your eminence and experience to your juniors here.” With the election around the corner, SRMIST’s Founder Chancellor urged people to vote right for the right candidate.</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_r1Vkuld42rOd4DKCCmMuM3k_hidyQUJt4WFlfA6OgeDvX77yc6prEjy-NhgtUbTQQLCLgsiKnjn8urYDNurgfP2Ow-46tc2H6PkCKZGRVkPmYDDpU-CEUAhzpcWeXHjjmptAo2RxjWQ/s1334/IMG_2748.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="1334" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_r1Vkuld42rOd4DKCCmMuM3k_hidyQUJt4WFlfA6OgeDvX77yc6prEjy-NhgtUbTQQLCLgsiKnjn8urYDNurgfP2Ow-46tc2H6PkCKZGRVkPmYDDpU-CEUAhzpcWeXHjjmptAo2RxjWQ/w640-h360/IMG_2748.PNG" width="640" /></a></div>The Annual Report was presented by Vice Chancellor of SRMIST, Dr. Sandeep Sancheti.

Our Government has already announced space sector reforms for greater participation of non-governmental entities in space activities. Our next PSLV launch will have satellites from start-up agencies as the first product of these reforms. I now invite SRMIST to join hands with ISRO to work on similar projects in the future.”<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Digital India’ initiative is another key area to leverage; ISRO has already initiated reforms to make its digital assets available easily to the industry as well as start-ups for making innovative applications in navigation, earth observation as well as disaster management.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">“India is progressing and it has overcome many challenges. It is the young people who have to put your heads together; to not only discover more challenges but also find solutions. The most important things are taking calculated risks and innovation on how to implement ideas,’ he said and added, “You may fail, but each failure will provide valuable lessons. You all must realize that if you are not failing then you are not trying hard.”<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">India aspires to be a nation with sustainable, equitable, and inclusive growth. Today we know the focus areas where we need to prioritize such as high-tech manufacturing and train and attract world-class talent.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Speaking on ISRO technological development he said, “ISRO has done the technology transfer of its space-grade lithium-ion batteries to industry. This technology is useful for mass adoption of electric vehicles without remaining perpetually depending on foreign sources. Even in rocket propulsion, ISRO is developing  for its human spaceflight missions. In the future, all the propulsive stages may adopt green propulsion.”</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK2paJAA2nS0ol-xjQcVzYNrZEkuEA_-mHO8Gz6czIDpOx_QRTUPJjXDIkP4l9vsVmbAgIx_16cWqc-mAgJOM897D9QN2SyvDx5a_QzDh8BxXrXT5ec0AYe80QRPvfDUgNAyaRlFwdZRs/s2048/IMG_2741.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
