The IndIGO Consortium has spearheaded the proposal for the LIGO-India gravitational wave observatory, in association with the LIGO laboratory in US.In addition to the LIGO-India project, the other activities of IndIGO involve facilitating international collaborations in gravitational-wave physics and astronomy, initiating a strong experimental gravitational-wave research program in India ...
LIGO-India, or INDIGO, is a planned collaborative project between the LIGO Laboratory and the Indian Initiative in Gravitational-wave Observations (IndIGO) to create a gravitational-wave detector in India. The LIGO Laboratory, in collaboration with the US National Science Foundation and Advanced LIGO partners from the U.K., Germany and ...
LIGO-India is a current project of a single interferometer based in Aundha, India, following a design very similar to LIGO (with support from the LIGO collaboration). It has received approval from the Indian government in 2023, and is planned to be completed around 2030. [19]

Adhikari (on left) at LIGO-India MoU Signing Ceremony. On February 17, 2016, less than a week after LIGO's landmark announcement about the detection of gravitational waves, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the Cabinet has granted 'in-principle' approval to the LIGO-India mega science proposal.

It was published in 2020 that a gamma-ray burst was detected ~0.5 seconds after the LIGO trigger, lasting 6 seconds and bearing similarities to GRB170817 (such as weakness [most power in sub-100 keV, or soft X-rays) bands], elevated energetic photon background levels [signal exceeding background by less than a factor of 2], and similar ...
Aundha Naganath is a town in Hingoli district of Maharashtra State in India. The town is known for the Aundha Nagnath Temple, a Hindu Temple, it is the 8th Jyotirling out of 12 which is dedicated to Shiva. The famous tourist spot along with the Temple includes the beautiful Garden and the Reserved Forest Region on the outskirts of the town.
The first direct observation of gravitational waves was made on 14 September 2015 and was announced by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations on 11 February 2016. [3] [4] [5] Previously, gravitational waves had been inferred only indirectly, via their effect on the timing of pulsars in binary star systems.
