After years of ISRO keeping quiet over the reasons why their Vikram Lander crashed on the moon in 2019 we started to get some more details recently, and now, with a public lecture by S Somnath, head of ISRO, I think we have all the pieces to put together a plausible chain of events that explains the whole thing.

This is the stream of the presentation, and unfortunately the camera quality is not great, so the relevant slides are poor.

There is an official report which has never been released despite legal efforts to do so, at this point this is the first end to end explanation I've been able to arrive at.
