--Recently India launches Mission to Mars...So why china stay behind they send a robo to Moon...So why we Indian stay behind..Its our Indian tendency to look at what our neighbor doing and how to go ahead of them..
So isro plans for moon mission----
The Chandrayaan-2 is an ISRO mission aimed to place an orbiter around the moon and send a lander with a rover to its surface in 2015.

ISRO initially planned to undertake the mission in collaboration with Roskosmos of Russia. However, following the failure of the Russian Phobos-Grunt, a sample return mission to Phobos (one of the moons of Mars), Roskosmos told ISRO that in order to increase the reliability of their planetary mission they would have to redesign their Moon Lander, resulting in an increase in its mass. Consequently, ROSCOSMOS suggested rescheduling of the Chandrayan-2 mission to either 2015 or in 2017. In case ISRO opted for a 2015 launch, the risk of failure would be higher and the ISRO Moon rover would have to be lighter.
ﾠ
Following the Russian inputs, ISRO invited its former Chairman, Chief Prof UR Rao, to do a program review; he recommended that India should go it alone. The country could realize the Lander module in the next few years.

Currently the spacecraft is being reconfigured for the proposed Indian Rover and Lander modules.
