- Holding Hand of Iran PM
- Tweets nice about America
- Close connections with Israel
- Sends aid to Palestine
- Good relations with Ukraine
- Even better with Russia
How Narendra Modi managed to build this level of diplomatic influence in just 12 years is still beyond me.
History told us
We were defeated.
But.
History what we learned was false
Reality

2010 Final. Mumbai needed 33 off 12 with Pollard on strike after smashing 22 in the last over. Dhoni placed Hayden at an unusual straight midoff to make Pollard go big. Pollard fell into the trap hit it straight to Hayden and CSK won their first IPL title Dhoni was insane🫡 https://t.co/hNteLdfhJo

No fewer than two dozen major wars were fought among the Rajputs with zero Muslim involvement. Not a single episode involved self-immolation of any kind. Not one. Neither Indian, nor foreign accounts record a single instance. Now see this:

1232-1232, Gwalior (Rajputs) vs. Iltutmish: Jauhar committed

Similarly, when the British came, we had a series of gruesome engagements starting with Plassey and Buxar, then going on to the Carnatic Wars, the Anglo-Mysore Wars, the Anglo-Maratha Wars, the Anglo-Gurkha War, the Anglo-Sikh Wars, the Anglo-Burmese Wars, the Anglo-Afghan Wars, and many, many more.
No jauhar.
Now, when someone like that book reviewer condemns “Hindutva” for “glorifying jauhar,” I am fully on their side. I agree it was a morbid ritual that does not belong in a civilized society, thank goodness we no longer do that. But do you see a pattern in the above lists?
Why do you think this macabre ritual was practiced EXCLUSIVELY in conflicts involving Muslim forces?
Why didn’t women feel the need to self-immolate when their kingdoms fell to any other adversary?
You can’t be dumb enough to not draw the only possible conclusion here.
Nobody glorifies jauhar, it was not picnic.
We “honor” it. No, not the immolation itself but the debilitating sentiment behind it. With the honor we keep our alive in our collective memory. Know why?
Because the demons that drove our ancestors to such extremities still live and breathe amongst us to this day.
And they haven’t changed one bit.
When someone prefers death to your touch, what even are you?

ना तो गायक जावेद अली है, ना संगीतकार ए आर रहमान है ना गीतकार जावेद अख्तर ..गानों में कोई भयंकर आर्केस्ट्रा नहीं है,धूम धड़ाका नहीं है, साधारण से गाने हैं जो दिल को छू रहे हैं, सुपरहिट हो रहे हैं।
