For the first time and speaking exclusively to NDTV, Nobel Prize winner for Chemistry Dr Venki Ramakrishnan has agreed to Reality Check all such claims in great detail.

    They would like to advertise these guys as the "success stories of Hindu India" and "glorious Hindu heritage", since all three have upper caste Hindu family backgrounds.
    At the same time all three are extremely critical of the mindless and toxic obscurantism that is sweeping across the country in the name of Hindutva revival, actively sponsored by the Sangh Parivar and its army of vicious social and political platforms.

      I respect venki ramakrishna but i do not completely agree with him. Just because we do not have proof does not rule out the possibility of having advanced technology before 1600’s. Fascination and assuming the possibility is in no way harmful. Like Venki sir mentioned leftists instead of finding faults should look at in light hearted knowing the fact that student and people still continue to only learn from
      Schools only and contribute how ever possible. Just taking pride in our mythological stories and assuming that is no way harmful to anyone. Secondly, intelligent people dont complain and will only take what is necessary. Only intruders and invaders and converted mindset people point fingers and rant and call those statements claims.

    I would have appreciated if the scientist thoroughly reads the Vedic books and also has the knowledge of India's history of barbaric invasion of centuries on Temples, sculptures, Vedic books, women. Then his opinion would have been considered as scientific knowledge rather it just stands as personal opinion.

      Though real vedic experts also would say what those politicians said is wrong, the people are actually believing in those things, and not following actuality and logic. That is the thing we need to eradicate. It doesn't matter who does it. The only requirement is that he speak the truth.

      I think Psuedo Science exist in every community. Like Islamic book said Muhamad fly from Israel to Jannat🤨 he travel from space and didn't mentioned any planet of solar system, allah breaked moon in two pieces by point of finger. I think ap jese padhe likhe jimmedar logo ko bhi agae akar aesi Psuedo Science kae against khada hona chahiye 🤗

      On the contrary, I think Bhakts need to watch this, as there is a chance that they may get cured of lies. A truth remains true even if no one notices, or pays any heed, to it.

      @@nit23sharma Erm, but the Pyramids DO exist! You can go and visit them today, right now.
      If you can show a working model of the Vimana, then we could accept it existed even if we didn't have the blueprints.
      Moreover, the Pyramids are just stone structures. Very large ones, but they don't involve knowledge of aerodynamics or advanced materials, fuel, engines etc. like airplanes do.
