Triumphant Chandrayaan-3 Landing: PM Modi Celebrates the Victory of a New India
23-08-2023 : In a moment of unprecedented achievement, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed the successful soft-landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the Moon’s South Pole as a triumph of the spirit of New India. This remarkable event marks the crossing of an ocean of difficulties and stands as the resounding cry of a developed nation.
During a momentous occasion, PM Modi celebrated this historical achievement, acknowledging it as an indelible chapter in the nation’s consciousness. As the first light of success graced the dawn of the ‘Amrit Kaal,’ India not only pledged but fulfilled its commitment from Earth to the Moon. PM Modi emphasized that this victory is a testament to India’s ascent as a global player in space exploration.
The Prime Minister extended heartfelt congratulations to Team Chandrayaan and the dedicated scientists who relentlessly worked for years to bring this vision to fruition. He expressed his connectivity with the mission despite being in South Africa for the BRICS Summit, underscoring the significance of the Chandrayaan Mission in his heart.
PM Modi highlighted the extraordinary journey of India’s scientists, which led the nation to achieve an unprecedented milestone – reaching the Moon’s South Pole, a feat unattained by any other country. He emphasized that this moment possesses the potential to touch the hearts of 1.4 billion people and symbolizes new energy, belief, and consciousness in India. This monumental event signifies India’s destiny calling out to its ascension.
The dawn of the ‘Amrit Kaal’ has brought forth a remarkable year, with India pledging on Earth and fulfilling that promise on the lunar surface. PM Modi emphasized the paradigm shift this event brings to myths, narratives, and proverbs related to the Moon. What was once considered distant now becomes a tangible possibility as the saying “Chanda Mama is quite far away” transforms into “Chanda Mama is just a ‘tour’ away.”
PM Modi underlined that this accomplishment transcends borders; it is not solely India’s success but a victory for humanity as a whole. In a year when India holds the G-20 presidency, the country’s “One Earth, One Family, One Future” approach resonates globally, echoing a human-centric ethos that has been universally accepted. This sentiment extends to the moon mission, aligning with the same human-centric values. PM Modi emphasized that this achievement is a shared victory, beneficial for all of humanity and poised to inspire future moon missions worldwide.
In this jubilant moment, PM Modi predicted that this milestone is a precursor to propel India beyond the Moon’s orbit. He reiterated India’s ambitious goals for the future, including missions like the ‘Aditya L-1’ for studying the Sun in depth and exploring Venus.
Through the Gaganyaan mission, India is gearing up for its inaugural human spaceflight, consistently proving that the sky is not the limit. Science and technology lay the foundation for a bright Indian future, and this accomplishment will serve as an inspiration for all citizens to strive for a brighter, more advanced nation.
Prime Minister Modi’s address concluded with gratitude and congratulations to the scientists of the nation, coupled with well-wishes for future endeavors. The historic achievement of the Chandrayaan Mission will forever remain etched in India’s memory, symbolizing victory born from learning through defeat, lighting the path toward greater aspirations and accomplishments.
