As in Information Technology, he hopes that Indian firms will emerge as leaders in the global space sector too, he said. Earlier, the space sector was closed to private companies as ''they could only be vendors'', but his government opened it up by bringing in reforms, Modi said.
“Big ideas can only make big winners. We have removed all restrictions by bringing reforms in the space sector,'' he said.
