Dear Kashmiri Hindus, I want to wish you happy Navreh but every time I think of you, I think of the hollowness of my wishes, I think of how we failed you, I think of how 700,000 of you still cannot return to your homes, and so please accept not my wishes but my apologies.

Sorry.

[Dr. Nikhil Agrawal @DrNikhilMD]

I was born in a general category family. Not rich. Not influential. Just a simple middle class home where every decision is about managing expenses and surviving another month.

From childhood we were told one thing. Study hard. That’s your only way up.

So we did.

Late nights. Extra classes. Parents cutting down their own needs to pay coaching fees. Education loans before we even earn our first salary.

And every year, reservation keeps increasing. New proposals. New bills. More seats divided. More relaxations added.

For us, it feels like the space keeps shrinking.

The cut offs rise. The competition gets tighter. The pressure becomes suffocating. One mistake and you are out.

People assume general category means privilege. But many of us come from families with no land, no business, no backup. Just salaried parents or daily struggles. Still, we are expected to compete at the highest bar with zero support.

When reservation keeps expanding year after year, it does not just change numbers on paper. It changes the psychology of an entire generation.

It creates fear.

Fear that merit alone may not be enough.
Fear that opportunities are narrowing.
Fear that no one is listening.

This is not about taking anything away from anyone. It is about asking a simple question.

Should opportunity be decided only by category forever?

If help is needed, give it based on real economic hardship. Support those who genuinely struggle. But do not ignore thousands who are also fighting silently just because of a label.

We are not asking for sympathy.
We are not asking for special treatment.

We are asking for balance.
We are asking for fairness.
We are asking to be seen.

They have barged into Hindu homes in Dumritala, Bangladesh, set them on fire, then locked the doors from outside. Families had to smash through tin roofs to escape.

The ongoing Hindu genocide in Bangladesh is no longer on the Islamists. It is now on us. For not doing anything.

88 painful years after Nehru, acceding to Jinnah's demand, excised it from Vande Mataram, a sitting Prime minister of India proudly sings the sacred paragraph that invokes Goddess Durga. They are not words, they are our history, they are our destiny.

Thank you, @narendramodi.

I am very pleased to report that the horrific murder of Dipu Chandra Das has finally been reported in the Western media after a mysterious and total silence since Thursday from all western media outlets. The first newspaper to do it is the New York Times! Hope the murder will now get the coverage it deserves internationally. @nytimes you are the best!
Thank you

The government has said that Dipu Das’s murder has no connection to communalism. Completely fabricated. A lie. While beating Dipu Das to death, the killers were chanting “Allahu Akbar.” Watch the video. Then, after stripping off his pants and leaving Dipu naked, when they hung him from a tree and burned him, they were still chanting “Allahu Akbar.” In the name of Islam, these jihadists killed a non-Muslim.

I do feel sad for Indian Americans. They literally contributed immensely to the Silicon Valley boom. It was never one-sided- yes, they achieved success, but the country benefited too. The U.S. tech boom owes a significant part of its success to Indians as well. It’s sad to see a peaceful community being targeted by low IQ Americans simply because they feel they can’t compete.

Modi Opens a Giant Temple, a Triumph Toward a Hindu-First India. ~ NYT

Curious how the headline is worded. Would the NY Times ever care to call any Middle-Eastern country 'Islam-first'? Because they absolutely are.

No Muslim will ever understand the importance of the sacredness of a particular spot unless it comes to their own holy spots in Mecca, Medina.

The entire point of constructing the mosque on that spot was to make the pilgrimage town desolate. To strip Ayodhya of its sacredness. It’s a saptarishi, one of the seven holy cities in Hinduism.

The Nawabs of Lucknow made their capital right beside it in Faizabad to turn Ayodhya into a ghost town.

It was literally called Majid-e-Janmasthaan, meaning “Mosque at the birthplace”. The invaders who destroyed it didn’t even make any effort to hide it and wanted to deliberately rub it in the face of the Hindus.

Muslims have little room to complain anyway, muslims turned others' holy sites into mosques whenever they could, or into rubble in the case of "pagan" idols, like the Afghan Buddhas of Bamiyan.

And not just in the past. Only in 2020, Erdogan turned the Hagia Sophia back into a mosque. The Hagia Sophia was a Byzantine Christian church, that was turned into a mosque after Ottoman colonialization, and conquest, then turned into a museum in 1935 after Turkey secularized, and now Erdogan turned it into a mosque again to fellate the radicals dicks).

The site where this temple was built has long been the reason for religious conflict in India. The site was one of the holiest places for Hinduism at par with the Vatican for Christians or Mecca for Muslims. But later with Arabic empires establishing in India, a mosque was built there. And because of this, there were years of religious violence there.

To resolve this there was a case that was contested in court for almost a decade and extensive research was done on whether the place was actually the original holy place that Hindus claimed to be.

And note that researchers not only consisted of Hindu scholars but Muslim scholars too who also concluded that the place indeed was an original holy place for Hindus and hence the Supreme Court gave the verdict to build this temple.

Even though it was ruled that the place that originally had a mosque be given to build this temple at the same time another land was also given to Muslims so that they too could build a new mosque which is going to be the largest one in India there not far from the original place. The infrastructure that was used to build this temple will now also help to build the same new mosque.

There couldn't have been a more democratic way to resolve this decades-long religious issue.

Kashi and Mathura are next.

[True Indology @TrueIndology]

In the history of mankind, 1000s of Pagan temples have been destroyed and occupied by Abrahamic religions.

But only one temple in the entire history of mankind uprooted Abrahamic occupation and reclaimed the sacred space.

Such is the power of Raam Lalla.

Congratulations, India: Hindu-Haters Worldwide Are in an Uproar!

Not only are the Western left-wing media, Islamic supremacists, and communists losing their minds over Narendra Modi cruising toward re-election in 2024,

BUT...

After an astonishing five centuries of anticipation, the long-awaited and historic reopening of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, a sacred Hindu temple, is making them see red!

This temple represents a symbol of reawakening for Hindus worldwide, as it endured violence and destruction by past Muslim invaders.

I love that the grand temple's consecration is set for Monday, January 22 - which just so happens to be my birthday!

The consecration, known as 'Pran Pratishtha,' is when the divine presence of Lord Rama is ceremoniously installed within the temple's idol, making it a sacred place of worship for devotees.

Don't worry about what the Western press says about India. We don't trust them, don't believe a word they say, and know they are Hinduphobic radicals who support jihadis!

Hindus have prevailed over violent attacks, deadly threats, exhausting court battles, and endless leftist propaganda.

You have triumphed; this is a victory of right over wrong, a manifestation that goodness and truth prevail. Congratulations!
