ISRO has postponed the launch of its GSLV Mk-III
rocket to March-April as against the earlier date of Jan 20. Reportedly, the
heavy rocket needs to run a few more tests, which include tests for both the
vehicle and stages. GSLV Mk-III is the heaviest and most advanced rocket by
ISRO. It will be able to carry the 3.2 tonne GSAT-19 satellite into orbit. Its
CE-20 cryogenic engine was tested in December.
