Watch: ISRO scientist claims poison attack in 2017, 'bid to harm space agency'

A senior scientist working with the Indian Space Research Organisation has claimed that he was poisoned in 2017.

Tapan Misra wrote a Facebook post claiming that he was poisoned with arsenic trioxide during a promotion interview at the ISRO headquarters in Bengaluru.

He called the following 2 years a 'nightmare' as he described the various health problems he suffered from.

Misra ascribes the attack to either his work on technologies with defence and commercial application, or 'seniority adjustment' at ISRO.
