Vedic River Saraswati is real now.

Replying to a question by Prakash Javadekar, MP, in parliament, the government admitted that scientists have discovered water channels indicating “beyond doubt” the existence of the “Vedic Saraswati” citing conclusions of a study jointly conducted by scientists of ISRO, Jodhpur and the Rajasthan Government’s Ground Water Department, published in the Journal of Indian Society of Remote Sensing. The study reports “clear signals of palaeo-channels on the satellite imagery in the form of a strong and powerful continuous drainage system in the North-West region and occurrence of archaeological sites of pre-Harappan, Harappan and post-Harappan ages beyond doubt indicate the existence of a mighty palaeo-drainage system of the Vedic Saraswati river in this region… The description and magnanimity of these channels also matches with the river Saraswati described in the Vedic literature.” It is a significant shift of the government from its earlier position since UPA assumed power at the centre. The UPA government had earlier maintained that there was no trace of lost Vedic Saraswati River.

There have been consistent attempts by the Marxist-Secularist dominated establishment to deny the existence of Saraswati River attempting to dissociate Harappan civilization from mainstream Indian culture. Three years ago, senior CPI(M) leader and Politburo member Sitaram Yechury slammed the ASI for its efforts. A Parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism and Culture, which he headed in 2006, said, “The ASI has deviated in its working and has failed in spearheading a scientific discipline of archaeology. A scientific institution like the ASI did not proceed correctly in this matter.” The NDA government in June 2002 had announced excavations to trace the river’s course which was vehemently criticized by the Marxist-Secularist academicians. Such approach is evident in almost every matter related to India’s glorious past wherein Marxist-Secularist camp tries to deprive India of its contribution to the world while seeking to perpetuate myths like Aryan-Dravidian divide to keep Indian society divided. Although the government admitting the existence of Vedic Saraswati River might be causing a lot of heartburn but faced with the facts Saraswati is now real for them too.
