ASAT started in Congress time, attained during Modi rule
The anti-satellite programme that started under Manmohan Singh’s leadership has culminated now, said Arvind Kumar, a professor of geopolitics and international relations at Manipal University, drawing a distinction between India’s earlier capability and the new reality on space defence.
“The process may have started in the Congress regime but it culminated in the current one. So, it shows this dispensation’s confidence,” said Kumar, who has written a chapter on India and ASAT capability in a book titled Space Security: Need for Global Convergence in 2012.
The current Modi-led regime’s bid to take credit is a “political” move, he added.
