Less than two hours before lift-off, the launch of India's massive home-made rocket and communications satellite was called off this afternoon because of a reported fuel leak. After the lift-off from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh, about 80 kilometres north of Chennai, the GSLV was expected to take a 17-minute flight to put the satellite into its designated orbit above Earth.
