I don't really read it as inaccurate. They did launch the Chandrayaan-2 mission on the 2nd attempt after the first attempt was aborted. If the first try had failed completely, it wouldn't necessarily still be the Chandrayaan-2 moon mission.

Not sure why some folks are upset about the tone of the article. I read the entire article and didn't find anything snarky or condescending towards India and their ambitious space program.

For what it's worth, I'm Indian.
