“Astrology is above Science.
We speak about nuclear science today. But Sage Kanad conducted nuclear test one lakh years ago."
- Dr Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank, in 2014.
He’s now the Education Minister of India.
With an MA degree, Pokhriyal has only honorary doctorates, and across the world, the practice is that those conferred with this decorative ‘degree’ do not call themselves ‘Doctor’.
Pokhriyal’s honorary doctorate from an unrecognised Sri Lankan university.
But the minister has two honorary doctorates – one from Graphic Era University and another from Uttarakhand Sanskrit Vishwavidyalaya.
“Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank is not even BA pass.”
- Manish Verma who filed a complaint against the Minister before Prez Kovind.
