Galgotia University Claimed Sound Vibrations Kill Corona — Modi Made Whole India Bang Plates
It was sold as unity, but let's call it what it was: feel-good theater over real solutions. Then, in a twist that still makes jaws drop, a so-called research scholar from Galgotias university actually published a paper claiming those exact sound vibrations could kill the coronavirus. This wasn't satire – it was peak embarrassment, and the fact it got retracted doesn't erase the damage to India's scientific credibility.
Modi's Prime-Time Spectacle That Gripped the Nation
On march 22, 2020, Modi urged everyone to bang utensils at 5 PM as part of "Janata Curfew." Millions obeyed – balconies erupted in noise, from cities to villages. It was meant to thank healthcare workers, sure, but critics slammed it as distracting from actual needs like testing and PPE.
Enter Galgotias' "Genius" Hypothesis
The Backlash and Humiliating Retraction
This is the same "university" that's back in headlines for passing off a Chinese robot as homegrown innovation. Pattern much? Flashy PR over real academia – and it all traces back to an ecosystem where Modi's symbolic stunts inspire junk over genuine science.
The Real Cost: Science Sacrificed for Symbolism
While the world raced for vaccines, india got thaali vibes and "research" backing it. Modi's silence on the paper spoke volumes – promoting feel-good rituals over evidence-based action. This fiasco remains a brutal reminder: when leaders peddle superstition, even "universities" follow suit, embarrassing the nation on a global stage.
