I find it really stupid that some ISRO babus are trying to dub the NGLV as 'Soorya', when we have an ICBM project named 'Surya' This makes for a ridiculously confusing overlap of names for vehicles meant for entirely different purposes http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/108472896.cms Ca...
