Union Minister of State for Science & Technology, Dr Jitendra Singh today highlighted India’s ambitious roadmap for the next decade, stating that by 2027 India will achieve a rare global milestone by undertaking simultaneous human missions in outer space and the deep sea, reflecting the country’s integrated and forward-looking scientific vision.
Speaking at a media conclave today, Dr. Jitendra Singh said that India’s scientific journey towards Viksit Bharat@2047 is being shaped by confidence, capability, and clarity of purpose. He said that as India approaches the centenary of its Independence in 2047, the world will keenly observe not only what India has achieved, but also the values, systems, and pathways through which the nation has progressed.
“India’s enduring democracy, constitutional strength and civilisational continuity, he said, remain among its greatest achievements and form the foundation for future growth,” said the Minister.
Dr Jitendra Singh emphasised that 2027 will be a defining year, when India is expected to send Indian astronauts into space while simultaneously conducting a deep-sea human exploration mission, an achievement accomplished by only a handful of nations globally. He described this dual mission as symbolic of India’s scientific maturity and its ability to pursue complex, parallel explorations in an integrated manner.
