March 19, 2017
For sincere and in-depth scientific research on the project titled, “Cultural Continuity from Rigveda to Robotics through Sky simulations of Astronomical References and Supporting Scientific Evidences”, the Director of I-SERVE, Mrs. Saroj Bala was awarded the degree of Doctor of Science (Honoris Causa) by Guru Jambeshwar University of Science and Technology, Hisar. During the same Convocation, this degree was awarded to Shri Suresh P. Prabhu, Minister of Railways, Govt. of India. Some pictures are attached along with the Citation.

Esteemed Mr. Chancellor
It is indeed a matter of great honour
for the fraternity of Guru Jambheshwar University of Science & Technology,
Hisar that a degree of Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) (Honoris Causa) is being
conferred on Smt. Saroj Bala. She is presently working as the Director of the
Institute of Scientific Research on Vedas (I-SERVE). For more than seven years,
she has been working as the Chief Research Co-ordinator of the Research project
titled ‘Determining Cultural Continuity
from Rigveda to Robotics through sky simulations of astronomical references and
supporting scientific evidences’. This involves extraction, translation and
sequential dating of astronomical references in ancient Sanskrit literature,
particularly in Rigveda, Valmiki Ramayan and Mahabharat, by making use of Planetarium
software; establishing co-relation of such astronomical dates with ecological,
archaeological, palaeobotanic, anthropological, oceanographic and remote
sensing evidences for scientific reconstruction of the history of our ancient culture
and civilization.

Smt. Saroj Bala has authored the books

entitled:
1. Historicity of Vedic and Ramayan
Eras: Scientific Evidences from the Depths of Oceans to the Heights of Skies”
Eras: Scientific Evidences from the Depths of Oceans to the Heights of Skies”
2. “वैदिक युग एवं रामायण काल की ऐतिहासिकता:समुद्र की गहराइयों सेआकाश की
ऊँचाइयों तक के
वैज्ञानिक प्रमाण”. Through
these books, she has proved that sky views of planetary references in Valmiki
Ramayan could be observed sequentially around 5100 BC and carbon dating of
artefacts excavated from several sites also considers these more than 7000
years old. Books authored by her under the titles: ‘Ramayan Retold with
scientific Evidences’ and ‘रामायण की कहानी – विज्ञान की जुबानी’
are
already with the publisher.

Because of her sincerity, dedication
and persistence, she finally succeeded in determining the true astronomical
dates of Mahabharat references, which are likely to set at rest all
controversies relating to dates of Mahabharat war. At present she is busy
writing her next book, “Mahabharat
Retold with Scientific Evidences” which will include eleven sequential sky
views generated by using Planetarium software, covering a period of 52 years
from 3153 BC to 3101 BC, which exactly match the descriptions in Mahabharat
with the date of war falling in the year 3139 BC.

It may be highlighted
here that Smt. Saroj Bala is neither an astrophysicist nor an archaeologist,
neither an oceanographer nor a space scientist, neither a geologist nor a DNA
scientist. In fact she is not from the science background; however for last
more than twenty years, she has been studying and analysing original scientific
research reports from all these disciplines. She is of the firm view that true
and exact dates of events/references in Vedas and Epics can be determined by
making use of the latest scientific tools and technologies. She also believes
that solution to many of the problems, which India is facing today, lies in
writing a pure scientific history, using pure scientific tools and correlating
pure scientific research reports. Smt. Saroj Bala remains fully dedicated to
this national cause and voluntarily renders services in co-ordinating this kind
of multi-disciplinary scientific research activity, which will help carry
forward the mission of scientifically determining the antiquity and continuity
of our cultural heritage and of uniting different castes, communities and
regions of India.

It is my
profound privilege to mention that Smt. Saroj Bala has done M.A. in Political
Science and holds a degree in LLB. She belongs to 1972 batch of Indian Revenue
Service and was the First Lady Officer in the history of Income Indian
Revenue Service to be adjudged as the ‘Best All Round Officer’ at
National Academy of Direct Taxes. She worked as Joint Commissioner, Additional
Commissioner, Commissioner and Chief Commissioner of Income Tax at various
locations in India. She had retired as Member of Central Board of Direct Taxes
in 2009.

For last seven
years, she has dedicated herself with a missionary spirit to proving
scientifically that Ramayan and Mahabharat are our true historical and cultural
heritage, Dravidians and north Indians share their genetic profile and that Vedas
contain some valuable knowledge of scientific discoveries and technologies.
Therefore, in recognition of her contribution to the field of science and
technology, research capabilities, administrative
accomplishments and above all for her service to the spirit of nationalism, Mr.
Chancellor, Sir, I present to you Smt. Saroj Bala and request you to confer upon
her the degree of D.Sc. (Honoris Causa) of Guru Jambheshwar University of
Science and Technology, Hisar.
