STAND UP FOR SCIENCE. STAND UP FOR RATIONAL THOUGHT. STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHT TO THINK.

India has been witnessing attacks on scientific and rational thought in recent times, as well as massive cuts in government spending on education and research. Apart from slashing down resources for research, the current regime has actively been promoting unscientific ideas with ministers publicly denying the theory of evolution, promoting mythology instead of facts, and ministries officially funding pseudoscientific ideas. The government has also been aggressively attacking dissenting voices and rationalists. 
A similar pattern is being seen across the world. In the wake of these attacks, an International March for Science is being organised in numerous countries, with India being an enthusiastic participant. 
To voice our discontent with this government’s hardline stance against science, the Delhi organising committee of the March for Science calls all individuals and students, teachers, activists, political groups and bodies to join the protest. 
Date:  14th April, 2018

Join us and stand up for your right to think and question. Attachment – Charter of Demands
