Why did Skyroot's Vikram-1's historic launch get delayed by 35 minutes?

Skyroot Aerospace's Vikram-1, India's first privately developed orbital-class rocket, lifted off 35 minutes behind schedule on its maiden mission. During the final countdown, the rocket's onboard automatic launch sequence detected a technical anomaly and aborted just five minutes before the historic launch. The mission controllers gave the go-ahead for a second launch attempt after verification.
