[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists) At the last second, we fell apart during the Chandrayaan launch.

[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=3) Everyone sitting there was worried. No one had the courage to tell the Prime Minister.

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=8) But I understand technology well, I could see that yes, something was wrong, it wasn't working.

[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=13) Finally, one of the senior bosses came and told me, “Sir, don't worry.”

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=17) I went to the guest house there, but I couldn't sleep.

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=20) Then, 30 to 45 minutes later, I called everyone again. I said, “Look, if these people aren't too tired, I want to meet them at 7:00 a.m. because it was a huge setback.

[0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=28) But I wasn't someone who spent their life weeping and wailing over setbacks.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=32) I went in the morning and told all the scientists, “If there was a failure, the responsibility is mine.

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=37) You made the effort. Don't be discouraged.”

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OzjKatFYFcfC/en/pm-on-chandrayaan-setback-and-encouraging-scientists?t=40) And whatever I could do to boost their confidence, I woke it up, and Chandrayaan-3 succeeded.
