Refined the #OSM map of SSLV Launch Complex at #Kulasekarapattinam further and expanded its history as proposed launch site on Wikipedia article.

@spaceflight Thanks. We have another spaceport in India coming up, #SSLV Launch Complex in #Kulasekarapattinam

But so far very little details are out in public domain. Only boundary is known but it is not yet mapped as we are at land acquisition stage which is almost finished.

Updated the boundary of new orbital launch site at #Kulasekarapattinam
