New Delhi, Oct 16 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday congratulated scientists of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) for the successful launch of the navigation satellite "IRNSS 1C".

In a message PM said, "Congrats to the scientists at ISRO for the successful launch of navigation satellite IRNSS 1C.” “It is a matter of immense pride and joy," he said.

ISRO’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C26) successfully launched IRNSS-1C, the third satellite in the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) on Thursday from Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota.

IRNSS-1C is the third of the seven satellites constituting the space segment of the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System.
