FINALLY a
VOICE of REASON(or we may als refer to it as TRUE VOICE of SCIENCE!)that is
once again TALKING SENSE to us INDIANS,amidst the recently conducted CACOPHONY
of " RELIGIOUS/VEDIC PSEUDO SCIENCE"by PSEUDO SCIENTISTS"during
the recently held "INDIAN SCIENCE CONGRESS"!It certainly gladdens our
heart to hear a GENUINE SCIENTIST of very high calibre like Nobel Laureate Venkatraman
(Venki) Ramakrishnan say the following:

I heard
that some nonsense was spouted at the Indian Science Congress by people who are
ideologically driven,” he said.“What was astonishing to me is that the Indian
science establishment did not speak out instantly&strongly about it.That
needs to happen.I don’t have a problem with any government, including the
current one.However,governments &scientists in India need to ensure that
politics&religious ideology do not intrude into science.They belong to
separate spheres &if they are not kept separate,it is science in India and
the country as a whole that will suffer"!
