India had internet and satellites during Mahabharata, claims Tripura CM Biplab Deb

"Many may decline the fact, but if the internet was not there, how Sanjay, could see the war in Kurukshetra and describe it to Dhritarashtra? It means internet was there, the satellites were there," Deb said.

This is hilarious

In a bizarre statement, Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb has said that the internet was invented lakhs of years ago and that the technology and satellites were present during the period of Mahabharata. Addressing a regional workshop on Public Distribution System (PDS), the CM said, “Not US and other western countries, but the internet was invented by India lakhs of years ago.”

“Many may decline the fact, but if the internet was not there, how Sanjay, could see the war in Kurukshetra and describe it to Dhritarashtra? It means internet was there, the satellites and that technology was there in this country at that time,” Deb was quoted as saying by Tripura Infoway.

The chief minister expressed, “I feel proud that I am born in a country with such an advanced technology, the countries which claim themselves to be technologically advanced are hiring Indian talent to upgrade their software mechanism.” The speaker was addressing representatives from Manipur, Mizoram, Meghalaya and Nagaland at Pragna Bhawan in Agartala.

This new statement came just months after Union Minister Satypal Sing discredited Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and said, “Darwin’s theory (of evolution of man) is scientifically wrong. It needs to change in the school and college curriculum. Since (the time that) man is seen on Earth, he has always been a man. Nobody, including our ancestors, in written or oral, said they saw an ape turning into a man,” the minister said

I think BJP and the Indian seers of today are going down the wrong path with all this bullsh*gar. The approach they should have taken is that the writers of those past ages were so futuristic that they were able to accurately predict and use in their tales many modern concepts like Internet and Airplanes and nuclear tech. This neither undermines the real-life heroes that they were writing about nor the technology they are describing. A win-win situation.

And we have many not-so-recent authors who have done the same exact thing and get praised the world-over. Authors like Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, Isaac Asimov... well, even older ones like Michelangelo and Da Vinci.

But chewthiy*n ke nagari mein bhosadch*d*n ki kami kaha (I should trademark this quote... if you see this elsewhere then remember, you have read this here first... echarcha zindabad )

You dont need internet or satellites for that. You could do that using radio transmission too.
Discussion in 7th or 8th class (81-82 many here might be toddlers or not yet born then)-
Teacher - Sanjay was able to tell Dhritrashtra what was happening on field. Could that be due to advanced technology.
Me- Yes, they were doing live commentary in those days.

These are easy click baits for media.. twist somebody’s statement.. everyone gonna click and comment.

“You won’t believe what Salman said to SRK” .. all jobless mofos gonna click and get april fooled in August.. inside it says he said eid mubarak .. lo chutiya kat gaya.

This chutiyatic media will never present news.. it’s only their views or paid views from someone .. too much focus on things being said. Mofos don’t wanna do leg work and bring comprehensive news. I stopped reading or watching news channels.. it’s almost as if commonwealth games never happened for them and Congress.

All you have is crap like this:

Of course! Mahabharata was actually a cyber war.

I believe that the mythology has its roots in facts. Of course the tales got embellished in re-telling.

If there was an Armageddon and most of the humanity was wiped out, with only a handful of survivors stripped of everything. Then the descendants of these survivors after 2000 years will get to hear wild stories of the technologies and weapons systems.

Absolutely... just like Noah's Ark. You can also include a horse trip into heavens as another wild story... but not sure what calamity was involved there... other than the Armageddon for future

How come a lot of religions have some mention of a great flood (pralay) ??

Because some times it does rain a lot. And to the lay man, it seems like a pralay. Like for example, yesterday there was a thunderstorm in FL. People were standing at windows and staring out at the skies... which were heavy cast and you could literally see the rains pouring out of the clouds. If this was 10,000 years back, I bet it would have been written down as a pralay.
