If my understanding is correct, did the PM in his speech promise to fund a future mission to Saturn?

IIRC, he mentioned missions to the Sun, Venus and a manned space mission.

I really wish to see a lander mission to Venus. Doesn't look like anybody other than Russia has done it - that too nearly 40 years ago. The environment is so extreme that the technology - especially electronics - would have to be radically different. The data is also likely to be extremely interesting.

One of the probes from Pioneer Venus 2 (launched by NASA in 1978) briefly sent back data after impacting the surface of Venus. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_Venus_Multiprobe

That's an interesting outcome! Thanks!

I am sorry I did not pay close attention to his speech. But in the subsequent speech, I think the ISRO chief did talk about a Venus Orbiter Mission.
