A former ISRO scientist, Nambi Narayanan, today gets compensation of Rs 50 lakh from SC after 24 years for a false allegation on him that he sold vital secrets related to Indian space technology to Pakistan. He worked as an in-charge of the cryogenics division at ISRO. He realized that there will be need of liquid-fueled engines for future programmes and so created it in 1970, for selling which he was accused.
