Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has emphasised the pivotal role of scientific research in shaping both humanity’s future and the world’s environmental sustainability.
Inaugurating the 36th Kerala Science Congress, organised by the Kerala State Council for Science, Technology and Environment (KSCSTE) at Government Arts and Science College, Kasaragod on February 9 (Friday), Mr. Vijayan stressed the need for responsible utilisation of scientific advancements.
Underscoring the duty of citizens to foster scientific curiosity and rational thinking, as outlined in Article 51 of the Constitution, he cautioned against efforts to undermine these principles in favour of religious ideologies devoid of logic. He urged vigilance against such tendencies, particularly among those in positions of Constitutional authority.
