ISRO Employee Associations Seek Meeting Over Privatisation and Technology Transfer Concerns
Nine Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) employee associations, represented by the Joint Action Council (JAC), have requested a meeting with ISRO Chairperson Dr. V. Narayanan to discuss concerns about privatisation, technology transfer, and the agency's future role. Despite a previous video conference address by Narayanan, the JAC stated that key questions on privatisation policies, manufacturing transfers, staffing, and employee safeguards remain unresolved. The JAC's renewed letter follows an initial representation submitted in September expressing unease over statements about ISRO's manufacturing role.
