For that we have to be fearless and take on the world," were his motivating words.

He recommended that the priority of space-based applications should be to contribute towards the national endeavours in food and water security, weather and climate, environment and ecosystem, education and health care, skill development, rural communication, infrastructure development, disaster management support, smart governance, sustainable development and related national imperatives. Furthermore, they should become part of the value chain of the user community.
