Ahead of Lok Sabha Elections 2019, Prime Minister Narendra Modi got the whole country's attention this morning when he announced that he would be addressing the nation between 11.45am and 12pm with an important message. Everyone waited with baited breath to find out what it was and the speculations were made over Dawood Ibrahim's arrest as #Dawood started trending ahead of PM's speech. Modi finally went LIVE at 12.24pm and spoke for 9.54mins. Pm annonced that India has attained anti-satellite capability, becoming the fourth such country after the US, China and Russia. The mission was completed within 3 minutes when a pre-determined target satellite some 300 km away in the sky was destroyed using a complicated space manoeuvre, Modi said in a nationally televised speech. Calling it "Mission Shakti", the Prime Minister said it did not violate any international law. "This is a proud moment for the country. Our scientists have made this happen."
