Here is the report from the Hindu about the GSLV D6 Launch :
GSLV-D6 set to fly GSAT-6 to space on ThursdayISRO Chairman A.S.Kiran Kumar, who is also Secretary, Department of Space, said the upcoming event was doubly significant. The ninth GSLV launch, for whose success he said ISRO has taken all necessary actions, would take the 20-year-old GSLV programme almost to fruition and regularise its use.
From the satellite point of view, he said GSAT-6 would try out quite a few novel technologies that very few satellite players have tried out, such as the large, unfurlable antenna of a diameter of six metres.
S.Sivan, Director of Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, the lead centre for launch vehicles in Thiruvananthapuram, recently said they had retained the configuration of the previous GSLV-D5 of 2014 so as to establish the vehicle’s reliability and robustness.
Flight D6 would fully prove the vehicle and the indigenous cryogenic technology and shift the programme into functional mode.

Good webcast! And yeah, everyone's news seems to be wall-to-wall sad lately. The world is rather depressing, but it kinda makes you appreciate space flight as that's humans doing good things.
