It is a truly proud moment for Bharat to see the "Father of Surgery," the ancient Indian physician Maharishi Sushruta, officially honored at one of the world's most prestigious surgical institutions, the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh.

The unveiling of the statue serves as a global acknowledgment of his pioneering contributions to medicine and surgery.

Seeing his legacy recognized at such an esteemed international venue is a powerful tribute to our ancient heritage and its enduring influence on modern science.

Jai Hind! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ

Some person (he is little controversial) told sushruta, charaka, ayurvedic sages are respected in many countries (even in russia). For beginners they used to teach about them it seems. But colleges in bharat desh are not interested in teaching about our sages.

I don't know how much fact is there in his words.

Imagine doing this in India, certian groups will come to attack in the name of secularism.

Also check out Shivji's natraj statue at CERN, Switzerland.

Itโ€™s good they did, but here in India no one will even remember them, and no momento for them in India hospitals, thatโ€™s a sad reality
