What is his reaction to the proposal?

संक्षेप में उत्तर
Advertisements

उत्तर

Duttada reacted very angrily to the proposal and said that it was all superstition. He also said that such superstitious behaviour could be understood in the olden times because back then man did not know the true nature of comets. However, in modern times, such behaviour was unacceptable. He said that it had been clearly established by statistical studies that their visits have no correlations with disasters on the earth.
