  • Profiles and Prospects*
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 47.3 (2012) 473-512 MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL RESEARCHES IN INDIA DURING FIFTH TO TWENTIETH CENTURIES — PROFILES AND PROSPECTS* A K BAG** (Received 1 September 2012) The Birth Centenary Celebration of Professor M. C. Chaki (1912- 2007), former First Asutosh Birth Centenary Professor of Higher Mathematics and a noted figure in the community of modern geometers, took place recently on 21 July 2012 in Kolkata. The year 2012 is also the 125th Birth Anniversary Year of great mathematical prodigy, Srinivas Ramanujan (1887-1920), and the Government of India has declared 2012 as the Year of Mathematics. To mark the occasion, Dr. A. K. Bag, FASc., one of the students of Professor Chaki was invited to deliver the Key Note Address. The present document made the basis of his address. Key words: Algebra, Analysis, Binomial expansion, Calculus, Differential equation, Fluid and solid mechanics, Function, ISI, Kerala Mathematics, Kut..taka, Mathemtical Modeling, Mathematical Societies - Calcutta, Madras and Allahabad, Numbers, Probability and Statistics, TIFR, Universities of Calcutta, Madras and Bombay, Vargaprakr.ti. India has been having a long tradition of mathematics. The contributions of Vedic and Jain mathematics are equally interesting. However, our discussion starts from 5th century onwards, so the important features of Indian mathematics are presented here in phases to make it simple. 500-1200 The period: 500-1200 is extremely interesting in the sense that this is known as the Golden (Siddha–ntic) period of Indian mathematics. It begins * The Key Note Address was delivered at the Indian Association for Cultivation of Science (Central Hall of IACS, Kolkata) organized on behalf of the M.C.

  • Scientists Issue Statement Against Intolerance and Rejection of Reason
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Scientists Issue Statement Against Intolerance and Rejection of Reason Vol. 50, Issue No. 44, 31 Oct, 2015 The scientific community is deeply concerned with the climate of intolerance, and the ways in which science and reason are being eroded in the country. The scientific community is deeply concerned with the climate of intolerance, and the ways in which science and reason are being eroded in the country. It is the same climate of intolerance, and rejection of reason that has led to the lynching in Dadri of Mohammad Akhlaq Saifi and the assassinations of Prof Kalburgi, Dr Narendra Dabholkar and Shri Govind Pansare. All three fought against superstition and obscurantism to build a scientific temper in our society. Prof Kalburgi was a renowned scholar and an authority on the Vachana literature associated with the 12th-century reformer Basava, who opposed institutionalised religion, caste and gender discrimination. Similarly, Dr Dabholkar and Shri Pansare promoted scientific temper through their fight against superstition and blind faith. The Indian Constitution in Article 51 A (h) demands, as a part of the fundamental duties of the citizens, that we '...develop the scientific temper, humanism and the spirit of inquiry and reform'. Unfortunately, what we are witnessing instead is the active promotion of irrational and sectarian thought by important functionaries of the government. The Indian civilisation is a truly plural one. We have always had many practices and communities that have allowed space for each other; we celebrate the festivals and anniversaries of all faiths. This unity and peace has now been disturbed by a rash of bigoted acts, attacks on minorities and Dalits, which show no signs of abating.
