“This launch has placed India in the group of select nations who possess the industrial capabilities of carrying out such complicated missions. We are very proud of the achievements of our space scientists,” Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said.

“This House congratulates the scientists and engineers of the ISRO for the success of this mission,” Mahajan said amid all—round thumping of desks.
