ISRO chief K Sivan today said it was a "big relief" when Prime Minister Narendra Modi hugged him hours after the space agency lost contact with Chandrayaan 2's Vikram Lander in September. When I was emotional, the honourable PM hugged me. He understood what really happened in my mind. He showed leadership. It was a great thing that the prime minister himself consoled me. That gave us a big relief," Sivan said.
