West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Monday congratulated the scientists of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) for their efforts behind the successful launch of Chandrayaan-2.

"Indian scientists and ISRO, we salute you. #Chandrayaan2 Jai Hind," Banerjee wrote on her Twitter handle.

India on Monday successfully launched its second moon mission Chandrayaan-2 from its most powerful rocket with a plan to land the rover on September 7 in the unexplored lunar south pole, exactly a week after the liftoff was aborted due to a technical snag.
