Scientific temper, a concept embedded in the Indian Constitution, emphasizes the importance of rational and evidence-based thinking. Article 51A(h) of the Constitution of India specifically enshrines it as a fundamental duty of every citizen to develop the scientific temper, humanism, and the spirit of inquiry and reform. This constitutional backing underscores the nation’s commitment to eradicating orthodox beliefs and superstitions that hinder societal progress. By promoting scientific temper, we aim to dismantle harmful superstitions and practices, such as witch hunting and the influence of fake spiritual leaders, which are often deeply rooted in societal fabric. Our goal is to establish institutional spaces for scientific research and discourse, integral to humanitarian development and informed decision-making. Nurturing a scientific temper is thus not just an educational objective but a constitutional mandate, crucial for the overall growth, development, and rational well-being of society.
