Mumbai: Captain Anand Bodas, the retired principal of a pilot training facility, on the second day of the 102nd Indian Science Congress, said that if India tries to make alloys mentioned in Maharishi Bharadwaj’s work, Vimana Samhita, then India would not need to import from foreign countries.
The retired captain further said that ancient Indian scientists had also developed a radar system that was named the rooparkanrahasya that would display the actual shape of the flying object rather than just a blimp that the modern-day radar systems show.
He added that ancient India had jumbo planes that measured around 60 feet by 60 feet and 200 feet in length. The planes flew on 40 small engines that had a flexible exhaust system which the modern aviation is yet to discover.
Captain Bodas has been in the eye of a controversy recently after the scientific community criticised his comments saying that it undermined the very basis on which the Indian Science Congress was started.
