Jammu, August 03 (KIP)- Pawan Sharma, State Secretary, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Jammu & Kashmir, today extended heartfelt congratulations to ISRO and the entire Indian scientific community on the successful launch of NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) — a landmark mission jointly developed by ISRO and NASA.
Describing the achievement as a matter of immense national pride, Sharma said,
"The successful deployment of NISAR underscores India's rising stature as a trusted and capable space-ferrying nation.

He praised the collaborative effort between NASA and ISRO, calling it a symbol of international cooperation for scientific advancement, and expressed confidence that the data from NISAR will be a valuable asset in tracking climate change, disaster response, and environmental protection — issues that directly impact millions of lives.

"From Chandrayaan to NISAR, India’s space story is now being written in bold letters across the sky. Our scientists are scripting a new destiny for Bharat — one that is rooted in ancient wisdom and powered by modern innovation," he added.
He also commended the young scientific minds of Jammu & Kashmir and encouraged them to take inspiration from such historic milestones, pursue STEM education, and contribute to India’s knowledge economy.
The launch of NISAR stands as a testament to India's technological self-reliance (Atmanirbharta) and its rising role in global scientific missions aimed at safeguarding the planet and humanity.
