I remember days when GSLV was just successful and pakis on PDF were laughing before launch and dismissive after launch.
After our guys got more consistent, all those threads became quite because pakis could not troll any more.
Grapes are sour. Internet Pakistanis came to know about Indian space program around mid 2010s and were convinced that Pakistan will also pursue a similar one in a short span of time.
They later realised that gap is impossible to fill and stopped even bothering about it. Nationalist and defence enthusiast Pakistanis although call it a waste of billions, they cry bitterly inside their minds on every Indian launch.

Congrats, ISRO, excellent. What was the specific reason for the considerably lower(initial)perigee for this mission, and what, if any, is the advantage of such an altitude. A layman would think that a higher perigee would be more advantageous, in terms of saving of fuel(?).

Methinks its the velocity that matters the most when injecting satellites in its precise orbit, altitude, and inclination.

He's talking about something else man, about financial feasibilities of orbital maneuvers.
