The ruling class stood by the nation's scientists at the time of failure, which is not a norm in India. But again, I've seen people who hate Modi/BJP "celebrating" ISRO's failure on social media. So, this comment wasn't exactly surprising.

You see, ISRO is the poster boy for Indians. They are brilliant and hard working. Exactly opposite of any other govt org

So even if ISRO fails it is temporary. And we all are unconditionally proud of ISRO no matter what.

No one has not stood by the scientists. That would be an incredibly stupid move.
