GSAT-29 Raised into Final Orbit

GSAT-29 has been raised into its final orbit, enabling it to provide high-speed laser communication links to both J&K and the Northeast. It's also equipped with a special "geo-eye" camera, which allows continuous visual surveillance of the region from high in geo-stationary orbit (basically able to monitor large objects like foreign naval ships in the area):
