All People’s Science Network (AIPSN) Statement

Click Here to Endorse the statement in support of the NationalResources Scientific (http://aipsn.net/post-2/) Temper Day on 20th August (signature-campaign- form)

Scienfic temper is under unprecedented aack in India today.

20th August is being observed as Naonal Scienfic Temper Day in honour of Dr.Narendra Dabholkar, champion of scienfic temper, who was killed in an act of premeditated murder by right-wing communal terrorist forces, on this day five years ago in 2013. The killing shocked the naon, but more rude shocks came when several similar murders were commied over the next several years. , who worked to support inter-caste marriages, delivered lecture on the true legacy of Shivaji, and condemned the glorificaon of the assassin of , was killed in 2015. M.M.Kalburgi, a scholar who studied socio-religious reform movements of the 12th century in Karnataka and the related https://aipsn.in/ 1/15 8/18/2018 Home Page | aspin challenge to dominant narraves, was murdered in 2016. And , fearless journalist and fierce cric of communal bigotry, was gunned down in 2017. It has now come to light that at least some of these murders were probably commied by the same extremist group. But the common thread definitely was the threat these forces felt from these campaigners for reason and scienfic temper, and against bigotry and intolerance. These murders are extremist expressions of the intolerance openly displayed by some mainstream communal forces, including persons holding high polical office, targeng somemes with violence all those who queson their prejudice, communal hate campaigns, and connuous disseminaon of fake news, “alternave facts” and falsified histories, including in science.

An imaginary golden past of “Vedic science” is being propagated by these forces. Real and great achievements in science and technology, and rich tradions of raonal thought, emanang from the Indian sub-connent are being sidelined, while obviously fake achievements are being proclaimed by top-level Central and State Ministers, Chief Ministers and polical funconaries, substung myth for history, such as that the Ganesh deity was the product of plasc surgery, that aviaon and space technology, television and internet existed in India from the me of the Mahabharata, that ancient India had in vitro ferlizaon etc, and all this several thousands of years before any recorded history. Many other fantasc claims have been made by some state and central leaders, such as that the theory of evoluon is wrong and that the Vedas contained theories “beer than” Einstein’s E=mc2! In sharp contrast, real and important contribuons to science and technology in India emanang from not just the Vedic- Brahmanic tradion but from many different strands of culture in the sub-connent, such as the Jaina, Buddhist, https://aipsn.in/ 2/15 8/18/2018 Home Page | aspin Islamic, peasant, adivasi and from other working people are being ignored. Contribuons of the arsan communies in India, who were acvely involved in the development of cras, technologies and producve forces, are also ignored, revealing persistent social blind-spots and prejudices. Many other civilizaons too have made important even seminal contribuons. Understanding and highlighng the many real contribuons from India to the universal body of S&T knowledge is tribute enough to India’s civilizaonal past, without having to invent any. Sciensts, eminent scholars and others from India and abroad, including Nobel Laureates, who express their disagreement with such views, have been aacked as an-naonal, western- oriented, and “sons of Macaulay”. Pseudo-histories and an- scienfic views are being incorporated into school curricula and college/ university teaching. So-called “research” to “prove” pseudo-scienfic claims in both the sciences and social sciences are being officially funded by government. Universies have become arenas of constant assault, oen literally, on intellectual autonomy and crical thinking.

The aggressive an-science and an-raonal atmosphere whipped up by obscuranst forces with official support has generated a climate of inmidaon and even violence in an aempt to suppress a scienfic outlook and crical thinking in our educaonal and intellectual instuons. Funding for scienfic research is being cut, while social science research is being throled. Developmental programmes are being formulated without significant S&T and other research inputs. Mega projects like the Bullet Train, Smart Cies, Make in India etc., are being undertaken with no scienfic inputs in the public domain. Development policies in industry and agriculture, in key infrastructure areas like energy, coal, oil and gas, power, transport and for basic needs like food, water and health are https://aipsn.in/ 3/15 8/18/2018 Home Page | aspin being driven by corporate interests with lile concern for the poor or for the common cizen and without any public scienfic debate. Environmental concerns are being systemacally sidelined. This systemac devaluaon of S&T and research, and the suffocaon of crical thinking in educaonal instuons and in society at large, will severely hamper the future of the country, especially of its youth in this knowledge era. We assert that promong scienfic temper, defending plurality, harmony and composite culture is a fundamental duty of all cizens, and especially of professional sciensts and social sciensts, as enjoined in the Direcve Principles of our Constuon. The right and duty to queson is basic, not only for science, but also for democracy.

It is essenal that this onslaught on scienfic temper, crical thinking and plurality, be vigorously resisted. Science has an important role to play today in defending democracy and the Indian Constuon. AIPSN appeals to all organizaons, instuons and individuals commied to promong scienfic temper to come together for observing the Naonal Scienfic Temper Day, and working together in the days to come to defeat the ideology of communal hate polics and build an India of reason and humanity with well informed and empowered cizens.
