Google Celebrates Pakistan born Nobel-Prize Winning Biochemist Har Gobind Khorana

"In 1949 Gobind was required to return to India to fulfill the requirements of service mandated by his earlier scholarship, but in post-partition India his ancestral village ended up in Pakistan and his family had dispersed. Unable to find work and living in the servants' quarters of his uncle's house in New Delhi, Gobind became essentially an academic refugee, spending a fruitless year looking for work. Thankfully, the government annulled the bond to repay his scholarship and he accepted a fellowship to work with Alexander R. (Lord) Todd at Cambridge, England, thanks to the help of Cambridge professor G. W. Kenner, whom Gobind had met in Zurich."

As I stated earlier he didn`t even set foot in newly created nation of Pakistan since 1947.

So his uncle from an "impoverished village and family" in Punjab was already in New Delhi and owned a house with a servants quarters. The other source you posted stated that all of his family migrated there, so how is that he already has an uncle living there, or that he has a family rich enough to afford to buy a house large enough to contain a servants quarters?

Are there any other sources?

Yes thats exactly it is except they stayed at govt. quarters in Delhi, not their own and they lived in the quarters meant to house servants.
More sources, why? I could fine none which says he was Pakistani citizen or that he returned to newly created nation of Pakistan.
To the contrary , all sources says he was sponsored by GOI, that he returned to Delhi and carried Indian citizenship till 1966.
 
Dear Indians no body can beat you guys in distorting facts and figures.Wikipedia is not a Pakistani source.Let see what Wikipedia says about the things you tried to mould.


New government granted further one year’s scholarship for post doctoral work, which he did at Switzerland’s Federal Institute of Technology.
It is totally false and fabricated.How can a govt decide for any person who is in the mid of his PHD program in advance to go for a post doctoral program.Let see what wikipedia says !!!

Khorana lived in British India until 1945, when he moved to England to study organic chemistry at the University of Liverpool on a Government of India Fellowship. He received his PhD in 1948.The following year, he pursued postdoctoral studies with Professor Vladimir Prelog at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zurich, Switzerland.He worked for nearly a year on alkaloid chemistry in an unpaid position.

Indian govt has nothing to do with arranging a post doctoral program for him.He himself arranged this program.From 1948-1949 less than a year he worked on ALKALOIDS in Zurich, Switzerland. .Then he has to quit this program incomplete because it was an
an unpaid position.
Do you thing govt of India(1947) in advance would arranged for him in 1948 an unpaid positioned while earlier his PhD program was a fully paid one.

During a brief period in 1949, he was unable to find a job in his original home area in the Punjab, which was in Pakistan by that time.

He came to find job in his original home area.

Original home area was
Lahore Punjab in Pakistan not Delhi India.

So did he stay at his uncles house or did he stay in government sponsored quarters with his family?? and why would someone migrating from Punjab, go all the way to New Delhi when most migrants during partition simply went to indian Punjab?

So if he supposedly had sponsorship and citizenship, why then would he a) immediately go to Switzerland and then America? b) Never claim to be Indian and apparently renounce that citizenship soon after?
 
Listen Indiot, I don't have time for your nonsense. This is a Pakistani forum, I called you names because you are lying.

Muslims did invent algebra. Not your nonsense.


I can appreciate anyone doing good whether they come from a Buddhist, Catholic, Muslim, or Hindu background.


Listen you liar,

Even wikipedia says Muslims invented Algebra. This is undisputed fact.
from wikipedia
You cannot tolerate anything good associated with Muslims.
The word algebra comes from the Arabic الجبر (al-jabr lit. "the reunion of broken parts") from the title of the book Ilm al-jabr wa'l-muḳābala by the Persian mathematician and astronomer al-Khwarizmi. The word entered the English language during the fifteenth century, from either Spanish, Italian, or Medieval Latin. It originally referred to the surgical procedure of setting broken or dislocated bones. The mathematical meaning was first recorded in the sixteenth century.[5]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra

It wasn't some ancient Hindus who invented Algebra.

Heck even Algebra is an Arabic word, not Sanskirt.

So don't tell lies here.

It was a Muslim who invented Algebra.

Now go cry me a river.

It may be true that a Muslim may have invented algebra
You could not prove Islam had anything to do with
