Consider the regard to involvement of private entities in following statements with India's space programme : Z. The Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) is an autonomous agency formed to facilitate participation of private entities. 2. Agnikul Cosmos launched the world's first flight using 3D-printed rocket engine. 3. | Skyroot Aerospace has developed liquid fuel for GSLV. Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
A. 1 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1 and 2 only
D. 1,2 and 3
Answer

C

Explanation

IN-SPACe was created to enable and regulate private-sector participation in India's space activities. Agnikul's Agnibaan SOrTeD demonstrated a flight using a fully 3D-printed single-piece rocket engine. Skyroot's Vikram-S was a solid-fuel sub-orbital vehicle, not a liquid-fuel GSLV engine. Hence 1 and 2.
