India's PSLV-C62 mission fails in second straight setback for ISRO

New Delhi (Web Desk): Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has found itself under renewed global criticism after a failed launch raised troubling doubts about the country’s technological dependability.

The unsuccessful flight of the PSLV-C62 rocket has not only damaged ISRO’s image but has also sparked wider concern about the safety of India’s advanced systems, including those linked to its missile program.

The situation has been further highlighted by Indian journalists and analysts, who have openly discussed shortcomings within the nation’s space and defense technology. Their own assessments suggest that weaknesses in India’s aerospace capabilities are becoming harder to overlook.

According to a report by India Today, the PSLV-C62 mission ran into serious trouble during the third phase of its flight, leading to the loss of sixteen satellites that were meant to be placed in orbit.

Observers say this failure is part of a growing pattern rather than a single technical mishap.

Specialists have also pointed out that the technology involved in the failed launch is connected to India’s Agni missile system, which has intensified worries.

Experts warn that if a similar fault were to occur in India’s strategic missiles during a military conflict, the consequences could be grave and far-reaching.
