Vice President emphasizes the need to explore and rediscover our traditional knowledge systems

JagdeepDhankhar today emphasized the need to explore and rediscover our traditional knowledge systems by combating prejudices against them. He said that some people who are cynical and recipe for chaos, raise questions and dismiss our traditional knowledge as unscientific, archaic without studying it. “Such prejudice against Indian knowledge and Indian knowledge systems in certain sections of academic discourse is contrary to the concept of modern scientific temper,” he stressed.

Addressing the gathering during RajanakaPuraskar ceremony in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala today, the Vice President underlined that a nation is known not just by its boundaries but by the depth of its culture. Opining that culture brings peace of soul, satisfaction & inner growth, he called for devoting more time to our culture.
