What the PM said after the PSLV C-23 launch:

# GIS technology has transformed policy planning, implementation. Space imaging enables modern management, conservation of water resources.

# Technology has a critical role in realising the vision of a Digital India – the power of 125 crore connected Indians.

# Such technology is fundamentally connected with the common man. As a change agent, it can empower and connect, to transform his life.

# I congratulate the scientists. This Sadhna you have done in the lab has the power to change the lives of millions of people.

# Our ancestors had conceived of ideas like ‘Shunya’ and ‘flying objects’, long before others.

# Our space journey has come a long way from the humble beginnings.

# We are proud that our programme is indigenous. Generations of scientists have worked to make India a self-reliant space power.

# Even today's satellites are from developed nations. Truly, this is a global endorsement of our space capability.

# This is a domain where we are the international cutting edge. We have achieved excellent and cut beyond mediocrity.

# This fills every Indian's heart with pride and I can see the joy and satisfaction on your faces. Feel privileged to watch this in person.

# My congratulations to our brilliant space scientists for yet another successful launch of the polar satellite.

Not separately but to expand the already navigation system to whole SA which at present has only capability upto India and few kms outside it.

Or are you talking about something else?
