EDUSAT Bandwidth Allocation to States not Done Uniformly: Centre

An audit report on EDUSAT has observed that bandwidth allocation to states was not done transparently and it was not allotted uniformly to all states, the Lok Sabha was told.

However, in its response, the Department of Space has clarified that bandwidth allocation has been made based on technical grounds for suiting the requirements of the states to implement the tele-education networks.

Replying to another question, Singh said that Isro will carry out test flight of Reusable Launch Vehicle -Technology Demonstrator by second quarter of 2015.
