Six years after courting Mars, India has planned seven scientific missions in the next 10 years, including a date with Venus in 2023.While the spacecraft to Venus will lift off with more than 20 payloads, the next decade will start with interplanetary missions — Xposat to study cosmic radiation in 2020, Aditya L1 to the Sun in 2021, Mars Orbiter Mission-2 in 2022, Lunar Polar Exploration or Chandrayaan-3 in 2024 and Exoworlds, an exploration outside the solar system in 2028....Aditya L1 and Xposat missions have been defined. The rest are in planning stages

Seriously, when did he have timelines of Chandrayaan-3An eco solar system mission like Voyager or Pioneer will take 10-15 years to materialize given our current level and it jumping outside solar system will take multiple decades.

<snip>Interesting that they changed the launch date of Cartosat-3. It seemed pretty certain it was a June launch, before Chandrayaan. There would be separate teams working on these missions, so it can't be a personnel issue.
