India's space agency ISRO is closely watching intense solar flares. These powerful bursts from the Sun can cause radio blackouts and affect satellite communications. Over 50 Indian satellites are under constant monitoring. Scientists are tracking potential impacts on Earth's atmosphere and technology. Further solar activity is expected from a growing sunspot. This could disrupt communication and navigation systems.
