Not enough data
Soumya's coverage predominantly focuses on scientific topics, with a strong emphasis on Indian space research and government announcements. For effective outreach, consider providing insights or data related to ISRO's upcoming missions or any significant developments in India's space exploration initiatives.
As Soumya seems to heavily rely on official sources and press releases for her articles, offering access to exclusive data, expert commentary from scientists or officials involved in the covered areas could be particularly compelling.
Keep in mind that Soumya has a national focus on India. Therefore, pitches should highlight their relevance to Indian scientific advancements and government announcements.
