Panel pulls up space department for shelving fibre project
A parliamentary committee scrutinized the failed T800 carbon fibre project, initiated in 2006 by Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre and National Aerospace Laboratories. The project terminated in 2019 due to inadequate progress and poor planning. The PAC has urged the Department of Space to reassess India's strategic material needs and ensure domestic development amid potential supply risks.
