This is pretty typical for ISRO, or any government entity. It's not even political. If you see the older livestreams, you'll see a podium bought to the mission

This is pretty typical for ISRO, or any government entity. It's not even political. If you see the older livestreams, you'll see a podium bought to the mission control room floor, where the ISRO bigwigs will deliver their remarks and congratulations. Wouldn't surprise me if this is followed by a "Vote of Thanks" and presenting of a bouquet.
