?Objectives
The primary objective of the Mars Orbiter Mission is to showcase India's rocket launch systems, spacecraft-building and operations capabilities.[39] Specifically, the primary objective is to develop the technologies required for design, planning, management and operations of an interplanetary mission, comprising the following major tasks:[18]

  • design and realisation of a Mars orbiter with a capability to perform Earth-bound maneuvres, cruise phase of 300 days, Mars orbit insertion / capture, and on-orbit phase around Mars;
  • deep-space communication, navigation, mission planning and management;
  • incorporate autonomous features to handle contingency situations.
The secondary objective is to explore Mars' surface features, morphology, mineralogy and Martian atmosphere using indigenous scientific instruments.[39"



1. Those above are the declared objectives of this mission. How does any of these address poverty alleviation in the country which hosts the world's largest poor? Will the annual average suicides of farmers due to hunger come down from 15,000 persons? How about toilets? What really is the true objective of India in indulging in such a mega project which does not appear a priority under any consideration?

2. Instead poverty, want, illiteracy and socioeconomic gap will widen. And more Red Corridors will come up.
