PM @narendramodi begins his address at the inauguration of IN-SPACe Headquarters in Ahmedabad.

Just like before an interesting post on social media people put 'Watch this Space', IN-SPACe is exactly that for India's space sector! : PM @narendramodi

Today at the launch of IN-SPACe I would like to say,
IN-SPACe is for Space
IN-SPACe is for Pace
IN-SPACe is for Ace

:PM @narendramodi

Today through IN-SPACe we are working on making winners from India in the space sector. When the ability of the Government sector & the passion of the private sector will come together, even the sky won't be the limit : PM @narendramodi

IN-SPACe will give an opportunity to the youth of India to showcase their talent and for the best minds to come together to propel this sector. :PM @narendramodi

The youth brings with it innovation, creativity & energy. This is essential for the Space Sector. IN-SPACe will bridge this gap between Government led projects & ideas of the youth. :PM @narendramodi

We are working towards improving Ease of Doing Business for the private sector, so that it can contribute to the Ease of Living for the citizens in the country. :PM @narendramodi

Today, I am happy to announce that we have more 60 private companies in the space sector. I am proud that the private industry is working with great speed in areas such as launch vehicles, satellites & space application. :PM @narendramodi

ISRO has been instrumental in making unprecedented strides in India's space sector, including the launch of IN-SPACe to promote innovation & growth in the sector. :PM @narendramodi

When ISRO launches a rocket, the entire nation stands together to pray for the success of the mission. Every citizen in India has celebrated the achievements of our scientists. :PM @narendramodi

India's space initiatives have been a great example of Aatmanirbhar Bharat. Now when the private sector will join these initiatives, the Shakti of the space sector will come unparalleled. :PM @narendramodi

Space tech has formed a strong pillar of growth for the country. From monitoring of infra projects to mapping of agriculture land to defence, space-tech is helping India grow, transform & prosper. :PM @narendramodi

Space tech is also helping transform the education sector in India by using satellites to disseminate information across the remotest parts of the country. :PM @narendramodi

The global space industry currently accounts for $400 Billion, and will move towards a $1Trillion sector. India's contribution to this needs to be increased, and IN-SPACe will play a role in that. :PM @narendramodi

There are infinite possibilities in our country, but infinite possibilities can never be realized with limited efforts.
The process of reforms in the space sector will continue to make sure India is a leading player in the global space sector. :PM @narendramodi

I urge schools & colleges to include space related topics in their curriculum. The same will be done even in #AtalTinkeringLabs, to encourage curiosity in the sector. :PM @narendramodi

We have made a View Gallery where over 10,000 citizens can view a satellite launch. This is a paradigm shift from the previous years where only few leaders would view such a momentous occasion. Now any citizen can be part of it. :PM @narendramodi
