India launched its 100th satellite which is a proud and glorious moment for our country. Cartosat 2 series satellite would provide better border surveillance which would dish out high resolution images of earth that should deter countries like Pakistan and China from carrying out any cross-border terrorism. India has become a Satellite hub for the world with great success in Satellite launches in recent times as even countries like US, Canada, UK, France etc. depend on ISRO to put their satellites using our facilities and space rockets in the globe. PSLV-C40 carried 28 other satellites belonging to other nations which prove our supremacy in space launches.
Indian scientists are the best in the world and hats off to them for making India a satellite superpower. Science and technology should be used by our government to eradicate many problems faced by our nation and this is possible if the men with the grey cells are trusted by the political class which govern the nation!
