PM Modi lauds ISRO's LVM3 injecting 36 satellites into intended orbits

New Delhi, Mar 26 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lauded the successful placement of 36 internet satellites of a company belonging to the UK-based OneWeb Group into the intended orbits by the ISRO's heaviest rocket, LVM3.
