PM Modi asked the scientists not to lose heart and said that is not a small achievement and the country is proud of them. "I understand what you went through last night, I could read the disappointment on your faces," said the PM.

He said that in science, there is no such thing as failure; there are only experiments and efforts.

PM said India will rise to the occasion and reach even newer heights of success. "We are proud of our space program. Today our resolve to touch the moon has grown even stronger," the PM said, adding, "Resilience & tenacity are central to India's ethos. In our glorious history, we have faced moments that may have slowed us but they have never crushed our spirit. We have bounced back again & gone on to do spectacular things. This is why our civilisation stands tall."

We will rise to the occasion and scale newer heights of success.

To our scientists I want to say- India is with you! You are exceptional professionals who have made an incredible contribution to national progress: PM
