Those unhappy with Dhanvantri’s image in new NMC logo can go to Pakistan: CT Ravi
Bengaluru: A recent modification to the logo of the National Medical Commission (NMC) has stirred controversy, with BJP leader CT Ravi stating that India is a Hindu nation and suggesting those unhappy with the change should go to Pakistan.
The NMC's logo underwent alterations, omitting the national emblem and introducing an image of Dhanvantri, an avatar of Vishnu associated with the initiation of Ayurveda. The use of 'Bharat' in the logo instead of 'India' also raised eyebrows.
Journalist Arfa Khanum Sherwani challenged Ravi's stance, asserting that India is a secular country governed by a constitution where all religions are equal, and the state has no designated religion.
In response, CT Ravi tweeted, "Anyone having problems with the image of Dhanvantari should quit Bharat and go to their beloved Pakistan. Why are Jihadis screaming that Bharat is not a HINDU COUNTRY? Who were their Ancestors? Do these Clowns have any idea? Bharat was always a HINDU RASHTRA and will forever remain a HINDU RASHTRA. SWINES can keep crying!"
The controversial logo change drew criticism from the Kerala section of the Indian Medical Association, which deemed it unacceptable to the modern medical fraternity. The association expressed concern that the new logo conveyed a misleading message and compromised the scientific and secular nature of the commission. They urged the cancellation of the move.
Anyone having problems with the image of Dhanvantari should quit Bharat and go to their beloved Pakistan.

NDA's win in Thiruvananthapuram Corporation watershed moment in Kerala politics: PM Modi
New Delhi (PTI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday termed the mandate received by the BJP-led NDA in the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation a "watershed moment" in Kerala's politics and expressed gratitude to the BJP workers for the "spectacular results".
The Left parties suffered a major setback in the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation, held by them for 45 years, as the BJP-led NDA surged ahead with a huge lead.
Reacting to the civic body results, the prime minister said it is a day to recall the work and struggles of generations of karyakartas (workers) in Kerala, who worked at the grassroots, which ensured today's result became a reality.
"Thank you Thiruvananthapuram! The mandate the BJP-NDA got in the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation is a watershed moment in Kerala's politics," he wrote on 'X'.
PM Modi said the people are certain that the development aspirations of Kerala can only be addressed by the BJP. "Our Party will work towards this vibrant city's growth and boost 'Ease of Living' for the people," he said with the hashtag #VikasitaThiruvananthapuram.
The prime minister said the BJP karyakartas are the strength of the party, and everyone is proud of them.
"My gratitude to all hardworking BJP karyakartas who have worked among the people, which has ensured a spectacular result in the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation," he said.
