MODI’S MYTHO-FICTION





The recent discovery/inventions of Indian Prime Minister which  endorse  that cosmetic surgery and reproductive genetics were practiced thousands of years ago in India  and as a proof he was giving examples of the warrior karna from the Sanskrit epic Mahabharata and of the elephant-headed Hindu god Ganesha.

This is not the first time Mr.Modi highlighting  such stories, even when he was the CM he has mentioned that Hindu God Rama flew the first aeroplane
(even this was a false information because it was not hindu god rama who flew but it was dravidian king "ravana" who actually flew the first flight according to Ramayana) and that stem cell technology was known in ancient India.

Such messages are usually forwarded and shared in social media sites like Facebook, twitter and mainly in what’s up, by the Hindu rightwing, school going adolescent youngsters very often who don't have any empirical evidences for such theories but simply spread hoax mythological stories!!!

Till date these creative imaginative stories have not been substantiated by any one but were discarded. And the sad part is that they were never ever was considered under "fantasy or science fiction genres even!!!

My concern is that, our mythological folklores have far better imaginative stories, to name a few A la Modi, in Mahabharata; Drithurashtra watched a live telecast of the "war" in his courtyard.

This gives us an idea that we had live telecast facility and also the then media was very courageous and fear free to do a live coverage of an ongoing war!!!!

Characters in Mahabharata have constantly connected and spoken to each other with a lap top like machine with a Skype like technology!!!!!

Whenever Arjuna hit an arrow it was immediately disarmed by karna in the air itself!!!! This probably could be the mother of the latest missile diffusing technology!

So we have ample stories like this to which Modi should try to find scientifical back up for such ideas and substantiate with proofs and present it to his fellow Indians and to the entire Globe.

But Modi with all due respect to his designation, talks and propagating like a high school lad who share and forward all imaginative stories as proud “made in India" messages.

There used to be a joke about a smart Indian, where his friends of different nationality invent different newer products but this clever Indian smartly printed “made in India" in all those products!!!!

We believe and hope that Modi should stop behaving like the one above!!!
