Space is considered to be the final frontier for human survival1. The 21st century explorations are increasingly focused on building and launching of spacecraft for myriad purposes; ranging from non-commercial activities to operating space stations, commercial human space flight, planning missions for mining on celestial bodies, etc. Space missions of sending rovers and orbiters to distant celestial bodies have become a norm, and no more a monopoly of few dominant countries. Vikram Sarabhai, ‘father of the Indian space programme’, emphasizing the importance of space programme in India mentioned that ‘there are some who question the relevance of space activities in a developing nation. To us, there is no ambiguity of purpose.Full Text

The National Clean Air Programme 2019 (NCAP 2019) addresses India’s air pollution problem systematically and systemically. Its 198 action points comprehensively encapsulate the recommended pathways of the programme. We present an ontological analysis of these action points and highlight the pathways they emphasize frequently, infrequently and overlook. Subsequently, we discuss the selectivity and segmentation of the pathways in the action points, the gaps in them and the potential gaps in the effectiveness of NCAP 2019. Last, we present recommendations to discover and design novel pathways to bridge the gaps and improve the effectiveness of the programme.Keywords
