<p>Mission 'Chandrayaan-3' has emerged as the symbol of the spirit of a 'New India', which wants to emerge victorious under any circumstances, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in the latest edition of his monthly radio broadcast — 'Mann Ki Baat' — on Sunday.</p>

<p>India entered record books as the first country to successfully place a lander on the moon's uncharted South Police on Wednesday, last week.</p>

<p>The successful conduct of what was the maiden lunar landing mission of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) also put India in an elite club of nations featuring the US, Russia and China.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“On August 23, our Chandrayaan-3 mission proved to the world that the dawn of revolution and resolve can also light up the dark side of the moon. Mission Chandrayaan has become a symbol and the spirit of a new India. This is an India, which wants to emerge victorious at all costs. It wants to break new grounds regardless of the circumstances," PM Modi said.</p>

<p>He further said a discussion on India's maiden lunar landing mission would struggle to do justice to the enormity of its success.</p>

<p>"The success of Chandrayaan-3 has seen the entire country immerse itself in unbridled celebrations. It has been more than three days since our lunar lander, 'Vikram', touched down on the moon's surface. Such is the enormity of the mission's success that any discussion on it seems futile," PM Modi said.</p>

<p>On the key role played by ISRO's women scientists in the successful conduct of the daunting lunar landing mission, PM Modi said the mission is a “classic illustration of women power”, adding that India's daughters are not only shattering glass ceilings but also challenging Space, which is considered ‘infinite.’</p>

<p>“India's Mission Chandrayaan is a classic illustration of our women power. Many women scientists and engineers were directly involved with this mission. They handled vital responsibilities such as those of a project director and project manager," he said.</p>

<p>“Our daughters are even challenging the limitless Space. When the daughters of a country chase such big dreams, is there any force that can stop them or the country from making forward strides?" PM Modi added.</p>
