Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman AS Kiran Kumar on Tuesday said the South Asian satellite proposed by PM Narendra Modi for the benefit of SAARC members will be launched in March 2017. The SAARC satellite, which is now being called 'South Asian satellite' after Pakistan opted out of the project, was originally scheduled for launch in December this year.
