Bangalore: Murli Manohar Joshi is a very quiet operator. His painless injection will result in death of a person after a month. All the “great vaidik brains” of India are aware of his painless injections and how they are killing not merely individuals but the country itself. But not one “intellectual” or “scientist” has so for protested against the havoc caused by this Union HRD Minister.
New Delhi: After getting the University Grant Commission to plan courses in traditional skills like performing puja and haven (Hindu rituals) and deciphering palms and natal charts (vedic astrology and palmistry) for the non-technical colleges and the universities across the country, the HRD Ministry is embarking on promoting “spiritualism” and other traditional wisdom in the technical institutions. As a first step, the ministry is setting up a “National Resource Centre for Value Education in Engineering at the IIT, Delhi. (Deccan Herald, Oct. 18, 2000).
The head of India’s highest scientific reserach body (CSIR), Dr. R.A. Masheikar, attended the Hindu nazi RSS session at Agra recently and committed the entire chain of research centres under him to promote Hindu (read brahminical) values. Joshi himself has been going round the country and shouting that astrology is science. Soon Ph.D. degrees will be awarded in astrology. But no scientist in India has protested. Why are they all silent? Because to them their dharma is more important than the country. Astrology will drown India and make us a laughting stock of the world? So what? Please read our book India’s Intellectual Desert (DSA, 1999, Rs.50).
