ISRO faces a pivotal debate regarding its future and the private sector's expanding role. While IN-SPACe suggests private companies will manage all launch vehicle manufacturing, ISRO's chairman clarified this isn't privatization, but increased private involvement. The government envisions ISRO emulating NASA, concentrating on scientific and exploration missions, with industry handling routine commercial launches. This shift promises revenue and jobs, yet ISRO staff are concerned about losing vital commercial income and independence, potentially hindering R&D and talent. Maintaining ISRO's autonomy, amidst this transition, is crucial for its ambitious journey.
