Mani,
Congratulations, and many more orbits!
We also want to acknowledge the government of India for supporting the construction and launch of VO-52 as a result of the emergency communications UO-14 provided after the 2001 Gujarat earthquake. We enjoy satellite communications as a hobby, however we should never fail to realize it's potential when an event causes on the ground communication's to be disrupted.
