      Who is Nigar Shaji, the woman force behind India's maiden solar mission Aditya L1

      After conquering the Moon, India on Sept 1 launched its maiden Sun Mission--Aditya L1. And like Chandrayaan-3, the Aditya L1 too had backing of 'Nari Shakti' under its Project Director Nigar Shaji.

      Hailing from Tamil Nadu's Tenkasi Shaji joined ISRO in 1987.

      Following the successful launch of India's solar mission amid cheers and claps, Shaji said, it's a dream come true.

      (please use chunk from ANI, where she spoke)
