Gujarat girl selected among 20 students nationwide for satellite technology mission

Digital Desk | Gandhinagar, Oct 15 (IANS) A Class 11 student from Gujarats Mahisagar district has been selected among 20 students from across India for 'Mission ShaktiSAT', a space science initiative that has provided her with practical training in satellite coding, design and assembly. Vipa Bariya, who hails from Padhara village in Kadana taluka, is the only female student selected from Gujarat for the mission. She studies in the Science stream at Eklavya Model Residential School in Vejalpur, near Godhra, and aspires to become a pilot or an astronaut. Organised by Space Kidz India, Mission ShaktiSAT brought together around 12,000 female students from 108 countries. As part of the programme, Vipa attended a 10-day international workshop at Gautam Buddha University in Greater Noida in Uttar Pradesh, from August 22 to 31, where she received hands-on training in satellite coding, design and assembly alongside participants from other countries. She was also presented with a special award and trophy at the event. I have been interested in space science and satellite technology since childhood. Being selected for Mission ShaktiSAT and getting the opportunity to visit ISRO feels like a dream come true, Vipa said. During the first phase of the competition, she completed all 21 modules, comprising 550 lessons, within the stipulated time with guidance from her schoolteachers. Vipa is scheduled to participate in a space technology event organised by Viasat in New Delhi from October 26 to 28. She may also get an opportunity to visit the Indian Space Research Organisations space centre at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh after the satellite launch date is finalised. According to Vipa, the mission involves two satellites, one intended to land on the Moons surface and the other to orbit the Moon. Her interest in space science has been encouraged by her father, Gulabbhai Bariya, who teaches Mathematics and Environmental Studies to students of Classes 3 to 5 at a primary school. Her schoolteacher and mentor, Deepika Sharma, has also guided her in developing her skills and pursuing her ambitions. Vipas selection comes as residential schools for tribal students seek to expand access to science and technology education and opportunities in specialised fields. Eklavya Model Residential Schools provide education to students from tribal communities, including those in remote areas. The Gujarat government said the initiative was part of efforts to improve educational opportunities for tribal children in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modis vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. Under Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and Tribal Development Minister Naresh Patel, the states Tribal Development Department is implementing schemes aimed at improving the quality of education and access to modern learning facilities. For Vipa, the programme has offered an opportunity to pursue her longstanding interest in space technology beyond the classroom, with further participation in space-related activities expected in the coming weeks.

IMD issues orange alert as heavy rain lashes parts of Delhi-NCR; more showers likely on Friday

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) Heavy rain and thunderstorms swept parts of Delhi-NCR on Thursday as dark clouds covered the national Capital, prompting the India Meteorological Department (IMD) to issue an orange alert warning of further showers, lightning and gusty winds. The weather department has forecast thunderstorms and rain in Delhi on Friday, October 16, indicating that the wet spell may continue for another day. The IMD had warned of moderate to intense rainfall in parts of north and northwest Delhi, accompanied by winds reaching speeds of 40-50 kmph and gusts of up to 60 kmph. Other parts of the capital are also likely to receive lighter showers and thunderstorms. The orange alert came amid a sudden change in weather conditions, bringing relief from the recent spell of warm days. The IMD forecast cloudy skies and moderate rainfall throughout the day. The maximum temperature is expected to remain around 29 degrees Celsius, lower than the levels recorded earlier this week. The rainfall is associated with a western disturbance, a weather system that moves eastwards from regions west of India and can trigger rain and thunderstorms across northern parts of the country. Further showers could affect Delhi and neighbouring areas, including Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. However, the intensity and distribution of rainfall may vary across the region. According to the IMD's forecast, weather conditions are likely to become drier from Saturday, October 17. Delhi is expected to witness partly cloudy skies, with the maximum temperature rising to around 32 degrees Celsius. The weather is likely to turn mainly clear on Sunday, October 18, with daytime temperatures expected to increase further. Meanwhile, rain, lightning and gusty winds could disrupt traffic and outdoor activities, particularly in areas receiving heavier showers. Waterlogging on roads may also slow down commuters during peak hours. The rainfall could temporarily wash some dust out of the air. However, any improvement in Delhi's air quality will depend on the intensity of the showers and subsequent wind conditions.

Vishesh, Manoj and Anshul are currently ranked 16th, 17th and 18th respectively on the PGTI Order of Merit, while Kartik and Shubham are ranked 20th and 21st. Vishesh and Shubham won their maiden professional titles on the PGTI this season. Vishesh Sharma leads the charge for the youth brigade. The Hyderabad lad, who played his first season on the PGTI last year, is riding on the confidence of his breakthrough win at his home course last month. He also secured two other top-10s this season. Vishesh, who has been India No. 1 in the 13 to 15 age group category, said, Its an honour to be here, playing alongside the biggest golfing stars in the world and my fellow Indian players. Were all proud to represent India, and this is a huge opportunity to show what we can do and what Indian golf has to offer. Performing well here would mean a lot to me. Bengaluru-based Manoj S, also playing his second season as a professional, fought his way into the top-24 of the Race to India Championship with a late flourish in the season as he claimed tied fifth and tied second finishes in the two events preceding this weeks season-finale.

Manoj, who was India No. 2 in the junior category in 2023, said, Last week was really important because I was outside the top 24 and needed a good finish to qualify. I managed to do that, so now I want to stay focused, carry that momentum into this week and see how it goes.

Sixteen-year-old Kartik Singh is the youngest player in the field at the India Championship. Hes already made an impression in his first season on the PGTI with two top-10s to his credit. Kartik has been the top-ranked junior and amateur golfer in India prior to turning professional. Kartik said, Ive watched the likes of Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood on television for years, and I still watch them regularly. To now have the chance to play alongside my idols feels really special. Im very grateful to the PGTI for giving me this opportunity. My main goal is to enjoy the week and make the most of this experience. Shubham Jaglan, former India No. 1 junior who played college golf in the United States prior to turning professional last year, has enjoyed a fruitful season on the PGTI in 2026. Shubham won his maiden title in Kolkata two months back and also claimed a third-place finish and another top-10 finish during the season. Shubham said, Im very excited to compete at the DGC where I have grown up playing. I would watch the Indian Open here as a kid and follow the likes of Anirban Lahiri on the course. Now, Im competing alongside him at the same event. So, its very special to be on the other side of the rope now. He added, Ive played well all year long, and now Im in a position where I can compete this week. These are the goals you set for yourself. These are the tournaments you want to play and win. On the presence of many talented Indian youngsters in the field, Amandeep Johl, CEO, DP World PGTI, said, The presence of so many talented young Indian golfers, including teenagers at the India Championship, is a testament to the growing strength and depth of the game in our country and our endeavour of creating maximum playing opportunities for our players. Competing alongside some of the worlds best players on home soil is an invaluable opportunity for these youngsters to test themselves at the highest level, gain confidence and accelerate their development. We hope this experience will inspire them to raise their ambitions and demonstrate that Indian golf has a bright future on the global stage, he added.
