India's NAVIC Satellite System Faces Operational Challenges

Imagine India has its own GPS called NAVIC, but many of its satellites are not working well.

This is like having a phone that can't find its way around.

NAVIC helps with things like guiding cars, helping soldiers, and giving accurate time.

Some of the NAVIC satellites are old or have broken parts.

The government is working to replace them, but it's taking some time.

Because so many satellites are down, the services of the satellite are either rendered completely ineffective or are inaccurate, which can impact critical services.
