The event should be organised in coordination with the Sarba Shiksha Abhiyan, Assam to facilitate viewing of the event by all school students.

The Chief Minister’s Office has also posted the letter on X, formerly Twitter.

Meanwhile, SSA Mission Director Om Prakash has also asked the schools to organise the live streaming of the Chandrayaan-3 soft landing within the school premises.

The mission director also requested the schools organising live streaming to invite other students of nearby schools where it is not possible to organise as this will contribute to fostering an environment of scientific inquiry and innovation among the students and faculty.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) said that Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to accomplish a historic moon landing on August 23 at around 6:04 pm.

ISRO has also announced live coverage which will be accessible on various platforms, including the ISRO website, YouTube channel, Facebook, and DD National TV.
