Chandrayaan 2 Mission Launch Highlights: Launch called off due to technical snag, revised dates at least 10 days away, says ISRO

The ISRO source has also said, “This process will take 10 days after that only we can decide on the launch schedule.”

An ISRO source told IANS that “The technical snag was noticed during the cryogenic fuel was being loaded. We have to approach the vehicle to assess the problem. First we have to empty the fuel loaded in the rocket, then the rocket will be taken back for further investigation,”

A technical snag was observed and the launch date will be announced later. 

Revised launch date will be announced later
