Earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the ISRO Telemetry Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) in Bengaluru to meet the scientists involved in the Chandrayaan-3 mission. Addressing the ISRO team there, he announced the name of the site where the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft landed. He said the place where the spacecraft has landed will be called ‘Shiv Shakti’ point.
“The point where the moon lander of Chandrayaan-3 landed will now be known as ‘Shiv Shakti'”. “In Shiv, there is a resolution for the welfare of humanity and Shakti gives us the strength to fulfill those resolutions. This Shiv Shakti Point of the moon also gives a sense of connection with Himalaya to Kanyakumari,” he added.
