Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla of Lucknow has come to India from America. He landed at Delhi Airport late on Saturday night. Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh and CM Rekha Gupta of Delhi welcomed Shubhanshu. Father Shambhu Dayal Shukla and sister Shuchi Mishra have also reached to meet Shubhanshu from Lucknow.
Dainik Bhaskar spoke to Shuchi Mishra by phone. He told that Delhi (Kamna) reached Delhi first with the child. She came to Delhi at around 10 pm. After about 4 hours, Shubhanshu came to Delhi. We have stayed together in the Noida house.
Shuchi told- Our family’s time to meet Prime Minister Modi will be fixed on August 18. There will be a press conference on August 21, in which Shubhanshu will tell about his space trip. On August 25, we will come to Lucknow with Shubhanshu. Shubhanshu’s School (CMS) has organized a program to remove a road show from the airport to the school.
At the same time, Shubhanshu’s mother said to Dainik Bhaskar- even though she is a celebrity for the world, but for me is still a little son. His arrival is eagerly awaited. Shubhanshu flew to India from George Bush Inter Continental Airport (IAH) of Texas on 16 August.
Read what Shubhanshu wrote after sitting on the flight…
As soon as I sit in the plane to come back to India, there are many feelings in my heart. I am sad to leave those magnificent people who were my friends and family for a year during this mission. I am excited to meet my friends, family and countrymen for the first time after the mission.
I think this is life… everything together. During and after the mission, everyone received incredible love and support. I am eager to reach my country. I am eagerly waiting to share my experiences with all of you. It is difficult to say goodbye, but we should keep moving forward in life.
As my commander @Astro_PeGy (Pagi Whitson) loves with love- the only stable thing in space flight is change. I believe that this thing also applies to life. I think- like this, go on… life is a car… the time wheel.
