‘Hearty congratulations & best wishes to ISRO Team on Mangalyaan’s success; nation proud of this historic achievement,’ the President tweeted.

Noting the ‘landmark occasion’ for India, Vice President Hamid Ansari said he joins ‘the entire country in saluting them (scientists) on their success’.

‘I am confident that our scientists will continue to scale greater heights and win more laurels for the country in the field of space exploration,’ Ansari said.

In her message commending the ISRO scientists, Congress President Sonia Gandhi said that the achievement would be a source for inspiration ‘for generations to come’. ‘India earns its admirable position in the world as one of the pioneering space exploring nations with Mangalyaan. It is a milestone in the journey that we as a nation envisaged after Independence,’ said Gandhi.

She added that it was the ‘courage, passion and imagination’ of the team of space scientists and researchers led by ISRO chairman Dr K Radhakrishnan which had made the mission a success.
