In 1835:
British recorded 41 lakh students in traditional Indian education systems. These students studied Science, Maths, art, Sanskrit and Urdu.
52% of the students were from communities that are identified as OBC today.
Only 16% were Brahmins.
STOP peddling the myth of 100% Brahmin reservation. That never happened.

#VandeMataram
AMIT SHAH IS RIGHT. ASK YOUR SELF WHY CONGRESS HAS A PROBLEM ONLY WITH VANDE MATARAM.
There are a number of state anthems that invoke Hindu religious imagery will Congress DEMAND SHORTENING KARNATAKA, TN & ANDHRA’S STATE SONGS TOO?
The Opposition says the full Vande Mataram cannot be sung because it contains Hindu imagery. Fair enough. But then apply the same yardstick.
1. Karnataka’s state song invokes Ram, Krishna, the Vedas, Kapila, Patanjali and other sages.
2. Tamil Nadu’s state song invokes “Tamil Thai” and personifies Tamil as a divine mother.
3. Andhra Pradesh’s state song invokes “Mother Telugu” and celebrates historical Hindu rulers including Rudramma and Krishnadevaraya.
So will Congress now demand that these state songs too be abbreviated because they contain religious, divine or explicitly Hindu imagery?
Or does the “SECULAR ” VETO apply only to Vande Mataram?
My best shot of the 2025 Prayag Maha Kumbh Mela from ISS. It is a once in a 144 year Hindu pilgrimage to sacred riverbanks in India and one of the largest events in the world, with millions of people in this single photo!
This is a myth. 🚨
The so-called 'Dharma Chakra' of Ashoka is NOT Buddhist. Rather, it is Vedic.
Historically, this was originally the pillar and wheel of the ancient Vājapeya ritual.
The pillar is the cosmic representation of Agni/Rudra, and the Chakra is Sūrya (the sun).
Hindus have worshiped this exact stambha and Chakra for thousands of years BEFORE the Buddha was even born
