India should be able to send its scientists to study the deep ocean 6 km under the sea surface in its own Samudrayaan by the end of next year, Earth Sciences Minister Kiren Rijiju has said.
In a video interview to PTI, Mr. Rijiju said India's deep-ocean submersible Matsya6000, which will take humans up to a depth of 6,000 metres under the sea, was "well on course" and could be tested by the "end of this year".
