चंद्र आहे साक्षीला... maharashtratimes.onelink.me/… maharashtratimes.com/editori… - @amol_dighe ‘चांद्रयान’ मोहिमेचे फलित केवळ चंद्रापर्यंत पोहोचणे किंवा चंद्रावर लँडर उतरविण्यापुरते आणि जगात वाहवा करून घेण्यापुरते मर्यादित नाही. विज्ञानाच्या दृष्टीनेही त्याचे महत्त्व आहे. याला दूरगामी अर्थशास्त्रीय पदरही आहेत. भारताने घेतलेल्या या भरारीचा साक्षीदार चंद्रच असणे, ही तंत्रज्ञानातील काव्यात्मक गोष्ट! #Chandrayaan3

To my fellow-scientists especially in India, if you are interacting/writing in India media related to science, please request the content to be made open source. Last thing we want there is another paywall/APC teapawt.net/Pavan_KumarGV/status/1…

Replying to @ThePrintIndia @MohanaBasu @SomdattaKarak @TifrArnab
Great initiative..but why is it pay-walled? @ShekharGupta @MohanaBasu @sandygrains : Request you to remove pay-walls on sci content @ThePrintIndia To my fellow sci on panel, you know how paywalls & APCs affect science in global south. Plz request open source in Indian sci media
