India celebrated ISRO’s historic achievements. But behind the ambition of Gaganyaan, Chandrayaan-4 and a future space station lies an uncomfortable question: Is India investing enough in the institution expected to deliver them?

Of 18,142 sanctioned posts in the Department of Space, 2,613 remain vacant. Reports suggest 100–120 scientists left in a year, though the government hasn't confirmed this figure. Restricting exits won't solve the problem if better pay, autonomy and opportunities keep pulling talent away.

For 2025–26, ISRO’s parent department received ₹13,416 crore against a projected requirement of ₹15,983 crore. A parliamentary committee flagged the ₹2,567 crore shortfall. Meanwhile, the Economic Survey noted near-stagnant budget growth over four years.

Two PSLV launches failed in 2025 and 2026. Gaganyaan, originally planned for 2022, has faced repeated delays, with its first uncrewed flight now targeted for late 2026 or potentially 2027.

Delays alone aren't failure—human spaceflight demands caution. But delays combined with staff shortages and funding constraints deserve serious scrutiny.

India's space ambitions keep expanding, but can its institutional capacity keep pace? Recruitment drives and a higher budget estimate are welcome, yet neither can instantly replace experienced scientists or undo years of underinvestment.

Chandrayaan-3 proved what Indian scientists can achieve. The challenge now is to build an institution capable of repeating that success.

Ambition can be announced in a speech. A space power must be staffed, funded and sustained.

The Supreme Court says it never approved the modified Form 6.

The ECI had said the Supreme Court had upheld the additional declaration attached to it during SIR.

So who was speaking in the name of the Supreme Court?

The Election Commission cannot invoke the Court to legitimise a decision the Court itself says it never approved.

In an election process, this isn't a technicality.

The referee cannot invent a rule, claim FIFA approved it, and then have FIFA clarify: “We never approved this.”

The voters are not spectators in this match.

They are the match.

Ironic how we demand total perfection from the new and inexperienced who ask for legitimate accountability, and nothing from the old and experienced who are legitimately accountable.
