Dear Delhi foodies, this is the Gujarati thali (pic minus starters) at the #GarviGujarat canteen on Akbar Road. It includes a variety of fresh,tasty veg dishes.
Note: The restaurant has a separate entrance on the side as the main building is for residents only.

As we have seen before, there will be efforts to target the Hindu American community in advance of the state visit.

There will be “teach ins” slamming Hindu American advocacy, media articles demonizing us and, yes, scam websites seeking to grab our info.

Be alert. Be aware.

To understand Darbari Economists like MMS, Raghuram Rajan, Kausik Basu, Amartya Sen etc, you must understand their #economics jargon is different. Here are some examples :

Hindu rate of growth : When any growth is low

Muslim rate of growth : Never, not even when growth rate is high. That would be bigotry

Liberalisation : A masterstroke by MMS to do exactly as instructed by World Bank because MMS made us bankrupt

Write off : Overdue loan instalments directly transferred to Adani

Inflation : A very high number during UPA that didn't affect common people as much as a much lower no is affecting now

GDP growth : A random measure of economic activity. The real measure is happiness index

Freebies : What Kejriwal and Rahul Gandhi give. Modi uses tax money for it.

Income tax : A tax that everyone pays because they pay sales tax

Privatisation : Good in America and under MMS. Bad under Modi

Stock index : Measure of economy when falling, measure of Modi's crony capitalism when climbing

#Cambodia has preserved late Vedic or Vedanta religion that was practiced in the 1st Millennium- dress, inter religious relations are all late vedic practices. #Hinduism #HistoryofHinduism

Dear @NikkiHaley your country's per capita CO2 emissions since 1750 is 32 times that of India's.

Sit down.

#Breaking | The largest hotel owners association in America representing 20,000 members & 50% of US hotels, @AAHOA, releases statement as to why they #SayNoToSB403!

#SB403 forced “unlawful racial profiling and stigmatization of individuals of Asian American descent”—AAHOA chair.

“India’s Gang Rape CULTURE!”

Got your attention, right?

While India has one of the lowest per capita rape rates in the world, it has plenty of writers happy to sh-t on its people & culture for clickbait.

Rape is horrific, but shouldn’t be trivialized to push political agendas.

When San Francisco did away with Algebra in Grade 8 simply because Latinos and Blacks were finding it hard to cope, it caused great hardships to Asians and others who were aiming to join STEM courses in college. @Nature and @RichardDawkins said nothing about this affront to math education. They reserve their outrage for only India changing the sequence of science topics in school. https://t.co/8HByKxWETS

[Indu Viswanathan @indumathi37]

Imagine being the guy who is so drunk on the science v religion binary KoolAid that he is unable to employ any discernment or logic and instead of actually investigating facts he makes a spectacle of his ignorance on Twitter. Seriously pavam.

🚨 Racial slurs against #HinduCanadians have a #genocidal impact, reveals groundbreaking report by @ncri_io. This alarming report highlights the gravity of derogatory language and its profound harm. #HindusUnderAttack #Hinduphobia

[HindolSengupta @HindolSengupta]

When I see comments by @RichardDawkins I remember that after Salman Rushdie was brutally attacked leading to the loss of one of his eyes, a terrified Prof. Dawkins refused to comment. Nor did he have much to say to the belligerent assertions of Mehdi Hasan who interviewed him. So

[Suhag A. Shukla @SuhagAShukla]

Maybe we’re supposed to dismiss this as vaunted British irony or satire, but sorry, demeaning a religious tradition over a government’s textbook edits—no matter how good or bad— is just run-of-the-mill #Hinduphobia making a supposed intellectual seem more like a poseur.

[Tavleen Singh @tavleen_singh]

Do not confuse the Sanatan Dharma also known as Hinduism with Hindutva. The Sanatan Dharma is an ancient but very modern idea of faith that urges questioning. Hindutva is a political weapon.

[Āḍi Śloka @AdiShloka]

On the path of dhyāna there should always be light within, not darkness.
The two paths of dhyāna are called Uttarayana & Dakshinayana.
Of this, Uttarayana is associated with illumination & freedom from worldly attachment, so it is the favoured way of dhyāna.

I think I am the only journalist in Britain who has actually watched this movie. Everyone else is discussing it based on newspaper articles they have googled.

[Sheela Bhatt शीला भट्ट @sheela2010]

After reading the posts 1) that are ridiculing Tamil seers, @narendramodi n all that happened at inauguration and
2) those Twitter handles who were fully supportive of all ‘Hindu’ rituals I find New Delhi ‘Badla badla sa.’

In Nehru’s India who were part of ‘the other India’?

I think this is ‘the 1947 moment’ of those who weren’t mainstream in Nehru’s era.

Let’s see how this new parliament affects real politics.

Visited the Partition Museum today. What a fantastic thing @kishwardesai has put together. 👏👏👏

[Suhag A. Shukla @SuhagAShukla]

If you watched the Christian coronation of Charles or watched Biden quoting from the Bible & Psalms at church on his Inauguration Day, but rue a passing of a sceptre (दण्ड) or sendol in a Hindu यज्ञ, at a Hindu Indian PM’s home, maybe think about who or what you actually detest.
