Manned Gaganyaan mission in first quarter of 2027: Jitendra Singh
Wednesday, 7 May 2025 India's Gaganyaan mission, aiming to send humans into space, is now slated for the first quarter of 2027, announced by space minister Jitendra Singh. Following successful test missions, including TV-D1, the program involves multiple institutions and the armed forces. The budget has increased to Rs 20,193 crore to accommodate eight missions, including uncrewed flights with the robot Vyommitra.
A massive cloudburst has triggered a sudden flash flood in the Chishoti area of Kishtwar district, Jammu and Kashmir, along the route of the Machail Matta Yatra. Local authorities fear possible casualties, though official numbers are yet to be confirmed.
Rescue teams have been immediately dispatched, with the administration launching emergency response efforts including damage assessment and medical aid. Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh confirmed the incident and assured that all possible assistance will be provided. The Meteorological Centre Srinagar has issued a Nowcast alert, forecasting more heavy rainfall, lightning, and gusty winds across parts of J&K in the coming hours.
