Role of Space Technology in India: The Perceived Threats and Recommended Measures for Pakistan

    India’s advancements in space technology have had significant implications for the South Asian region, particularly for Pakistan's neighboring countries. These papers examine the perceived threats posed by India’s space capabilities and propose strategic measures for Pakistan to address these challenges. By analyzing India’s space program history, current capabilities, and potential military and economic impacts, the paper provides a comprehensive overview of the strategic landscape. Furthermore, it offers recommendations for Pakistan to enhance its own space capabilities to improve its cybersecurity measures, form strategic alliances, and engage in diplomatic efforts to mitigate the risks associated with Indian space advancements.
