ISRO is downplaying the launch of 'spy satellite' Risat-2 on Monday despite the model election code of conduct not coming in its way.
On Saturday, Isro officials told TOI the space agency has decided to do away with the traditional live telecast of the launch accompanied by a commentary by Doordarshan and other TV channels. The 48-hour countdown began at 6.45am on Saturday and the launch is slated for 6.45am on Monday at Sriharikota.

India's defence surveillance capabilities will get a quantum boost Monday with the launch of a sophisticated spy satellite that can see through fog and clouds, a facility that has been hitherto unavailable.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) workhorse polar satellite launch vehicle (PSLV) that will soar aloft from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, 80 km from here, with the radar imaging satellite (RISAT), will also put into orbit the Anusat, a micro educational satellite built by Anna University.
ISRO officials said the launch is slated between 6.30 and 7 a.m. The 230 tonne rocket will carry a weight of around 350 kg - the 300 kg RISAT and 50 kg Anusat.
