Well, Vikram is on the Moon...and all Indians are over the Moon!!

 Such experiments require complete commitment, hard work, motivation and determination from a huge team of scientists,engineers from every scientific field, and administrators!

Hats off to team ISRO, for their mammoth achievement which has filled the heart of every Indian with Pride! Proud to be an Indian!

: ISRO has since inception worked on the principle of merit. No caste or IAS has ever marred its work force. I’m praying it stays that way. 

Leadership matters. Engineer Sreedharan proved it long ago with the Pambam bridge, Konkan railway & the Delhi metro. We all remember the torture Calcutta went through for its 7 odd km long metro. Delhi had less than 25% of that. Delhi metro is today over 400 km of routes. Calcutta is less than 25% of that!!

Really emotional feeling for me and for millions of us Indians. Imagine what it would be like for the ISRO team. Current and past. Hats off to a 100 % government agency to be able to go so hi tech. At government salaries and bureaucratic environments. When  these scientists could probably get a high paying job anywhere in the world. what drives these people. A culture that has sustained over the last 50 plus years when the world has changed like crazy. That I think is really what makes it even greater. 

Besides our armed forces, we are not exactly famous for team work! ISRO has proved beyond any doubt, that we can really perform well as a team!
