Shah said a true leader stands by his people through every circumstance, and this was reflected when the prime minister flew directly to Bengaluru from Greece this morning to meet the ISRO scientists behind Chandrayaan 3.
The prime minister’s inspiring address to the scientists in Bengaluru was an ode to India’s stupendous achievement that reached the skies, Shah said in a statement.
August 23 is a historic day for India as it marks the accomplishment of its lunar mission Chandrayaan 3, he noted.

Shah said with the historic success of India’s lunar mission, the country’s scientists have imprinted an indelible mark on the sands of time.
To commemorate this achievement, the prime minister named the landing spot of Chandrayaan-3 ‘Shivshakti,’ and the location where Chandrayaan-2 fell ‘Tiranga’, to remind everyone that ‘no failure is permanent’, he said.
