The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is grappling with setbacks following two consecutive failures of its Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) in 2025 and 2026, which have delayed several critical satellite launches. The PSLV, which has successfully completed 64 missions with only four failures since its first launch in 1993, is crucial for India's indigenous navigation system, NavIC, and other projects. An expert committee, led by former principal scientific adviser to the Prime Minister, Prof. Vijayraghavan, is investigating the failures and is expected to provide solutions by June 2026. The PSLV-C61 and PSLV-C62 missions encountered anomalies in the third stage, leading to trajectory deviations. Union Minister of State for Space, Jitendra Singh, indicated that the failures stemmed from different causes and emphasized the need for resolution before further launches can proceed. The setbacks have also affected the planned launch of the NavIC NVS-3 satellite and the maiden flight of a privately manufactured PSLV rocket, which is being developed by a consortium of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and Larsen & Toubro. ISRO aims to bounce back from these challenges, as it has done in the past.
