Indian navigation satellite stuck in transfer orbit after propulsion failure

The Indian Space Research Organisation stated that the NVS-02 satellite, launched on Jan. 28, suffered a thruster failure that prevented it from raising its orbit as planned.
The satellite systems are healthy and it is currently in an elliptical orbit, but alternative mission strategies for utilizing it for navigation in this orbit are being worked out.
NVS-02 was intended to operate at 111.75 degrees east in geostationary orbit, replacing the IRNSS-1E spacecraft as part of India's Navigation with Indian Constellation program.
