The ISC held in 2016 even managed to infuriate Nobel laureate Venkatraman Ramakrishnan who later said, "I attended one day and very little science was discussed. It was a circus. I find that it's an organization where very little science is discussed. I will never attend one of these again in my life." ISC must have really outraged him to make a scientist of his stature comment like this on an organisation where he was invited!
This article is about particularly one person in the field of science who created much uproar amongst the science crowd in India.
Dr. Kanan Jagathala Krishnan gave his lecture in the 106th ISC on, I quote," the whole physics is wrong." Only Einstein gets to say that.
He started off with a big acknowledgement which seemed quite unnecessary and during this he even said that Australia, till now, has had only one prime minister- Julia Gillard, such a big factual fallacy in a national congress!
He then proceeded to say that Sir Isaac Newton was wrong about his theories because he could not explain gravitational repulsive force, which still remains quite an abstract topic. I only have two things to say:-
- Nobody says Newton was wrong about his theories, they only say that Newton's theories could not explain everything.
- Newton's theories are still considered as one of the greatest achievements of humanity and at Newton's period they were a breakthrough. At that time, Newton's theories were to a layman what now quantum mechanics is to a layman. Dr. Kanan says that Newton could not explain gravitational repulsive force; isn't it because at the time when someone has made a step towards understanding gravitation, a phenomenon still unknown, nobody would have thought of gravitational repulsive force. Although, now a fifth grader can recite Newton's three laws of motion, then how come Newton's theories were a breakthrough at the latter's time? My simple answer- intelligence and knowledge evolve with time; this fact makes it completely unethical to challenge a centuries old breakthrough with the help of a new (still not completely understood) theory.
Dr. Kanan, who has a degree in engineering, business administration and doctorate on natural resources (but none in physics), concluded by saying that when his theories are proven, he will rename gravitational waves as 'Narendra Modi waves' after the current prime minister of India Shri Narendra Modi and gravitational lensing effect as ‘Harsh Vardhan effect’ after Shri Harsh Vardhan, the Indian minister of science and technology. Dr. kanan has already thought of the honors he would get if he proves that 'the whole is physics wrong', but has not explained how the aforementioned phenomena are possible without curvature in space-time and General relativity, especially gravitational waves (which again was predicted by Einstein himself and years later detected using sensitive instruments).

After Newton, Dr. Kanan targeted Albert Einstein. He said that Einstein made an even greater blunder. the lecturer said that there is no curvature in space-time, dissenting from the popular theory of General Relativity. He even said that E = mc2 is wrong! While everyone around the globe says that it is just incomplete and applies only for bodies at rest. The complete version of the equation- E²=(mc²)²+(pc)², which also was given by Einstein himself.

Dr. Kanan went on to claim that electricity and magnetism are the same phenomena.
Venkatraman ramakrishnan had objected to politics and religious ideologies being mixed with science. Dr. Kanan might just have a political agenda behind making these statements.
