  • Mumbai: Remarks by the Director of Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras, V Kamakoti, where he claimed that cow urine has "anti-bacterial" and anti-fungal" properties, has been unequivocally condemned by the scientific community and activists.

The article discusses the backlash against IIT Madras Director V. Kamakoti for his comments on cow urine during a public event. At the event, Kamakoti suggested that cow urine could be used for its medicinal properties, a statement that has drawn criticism from the scientific community and activists in Tamil Nadu. Critics argue that his remarks promote pseudoscience and could mislead the public, especially given his influential position. The Tamil Nadu Progressive Writers and Artists Association (TNPWAA) and other rationalist groups have condemned his statements, emphasizing the need for scientific temper and evidence-based discourse. They are concerned that such endorsements from a respected academic figure could undermine scientific education and research. The controversy has sparked a broader debate on the intersection of traditional beliefs and modern science in educational institutions.
