“What an achievement! I am so so happy and proud, as everybody should be in India. Main bata nahi sakta, yeh kitni badi achievement hain, yeh baat toh sehraniya hain hi ki hum chand par utar paye, woh bhi south pole mein pehli baar, but jis limited resources and budget ke saath humne ise achieve kiye…I don’t know kitna tareef kar sakte hain (I can’t begin to express how big this achievement is, it is commendable that we landed on the surface of the moon, but the fact that we did it with limited resources and budget, I don’t know how much can one be praised for that.”
Madhavan further added, “This feels so good, it’s fabulous to be part of history like this, to be there at the moment that Chandrayaan touched the surface of the moon. ISRO scientists hats off! I am so very happy for Nambi sir, his Vikas engine again has proved to be successful with the launch. Keep making us proud, sky se bohut aage nikal chuke hain aap (You have gone beyond the clouds). I wish you all the very best for greater explorations of the space. To the government of India, the Prime Minister, and every Indian, feel proud. This is an amazing historical moment, and I am so happy and touched. Jai Hind.”

The Vikram lander gracefully touched down on the lunar surface at around 6 p.m. on August 23.
With this triumphant landing, achieved on the mission’s second attempt within four years, India has now joined the ranks of the US, China, and the former Soviet Union as the fourth country to excel in the technology of soft lunar landings.
According to reports from PTI, Chandrayaan-3 serves as a successor to Chandrayaan-2, aiming to showcase secure and gentle landings on the moon’s surface, traverse the lunar terrain, and undertake on-site scientific experiments.
