There is a huge difference between saying a guy from BJP asked some committee to fund Astrology courses and saying that in India Astrology is now being treated as a Science.

I am sure you wont get it as it seems from your posting history that you are extremely biased or worse you are a blogger from a hired private blog network

> BJP asked some committee to fund Astrology courses

Yes, fund Astrology courses and offer it as SCIENCE degrees - that's BSc and MSc degrees on something that is not even a psedu science but total bullshit. What an incredible waste of money and resources! Anf why - because these religious fundamentalists think of it as a "Science" and want to give it some legitimacy.

Oh yes. I openly admit that I am no admirer of the religious fundamentalists currently in power and ruling my country. Their retrograde ideology is not spreading discontent and polarising communities, they are also slowly destroying India's economy.
