Isro successfully launches 2nd-gen navigation sat

Around 19 minutes after the rocket lifted off from the second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota, the 51.7m-tall, 420 tonnes three-stage GSLV-F12 placed the 2,232kg satellite at a 251km altitude. In the coming days, Isro scientists will perform manoeuvres by firing the onboard propellant to place the satellite in its final orbit.
