SAARC Satellite
SAARC Satellite is a proposed communication and meteorology satellite by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) for the SAARC region. During the 18th SAARC summit held in Nepal in 2014, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi mooted the idea of a satellite serving the needs of SAARC member nations, part of his Neighbourhood first policy.
==Background==
During the Indian general elections campaign in 2014, Narendra Modi hinted that his foreign policy will actively focus on improving ties with India's immediate neighbours which is being termed as Neighbourhood first policy in the Indian media. Modi invited all heads of state/heads of government of SAARC countries in his Swearing-in ceremony as Prime Minister of India and held bilateral talks with all of them individually which was dubbed as a "mini SAARC summit" by the media. India has an active space program dating back to 1965, and in 1975, became the first South Asian nation to launch a satellite.〔 Furthermore, India and Pakistan are only two nations in South Asia to have successfully launched and operates satellites in space while other South Asian nations have struggled and lacked in such progress.〔
One month after sworn in as Prime Minister of India, in June 2014 Modi asked ISRO to develop a SAARC satellite, which can be dedicated as a ‘gift’ to the neighbours. He asked the scientists to work on a satellite that would provide full range of applications and services to all of India’s neighbours. Modi said, "There is a lot of poverty in the SAARC nations and we need scientific solutions for this."〔
In his address to the Sri Lankan Parliament in March 2015, the Prime Minister Narendra Modi said "Sri Lanka will take full benefit of India's satellite for the SAARC Region. This should be in Space by December 2016".〔
