Portrayal of Kashmir in Hindi Cinema can be categorised in three major phases. Phase 1 from late 60's to 1989, phase 2 from 1989 to 2019 and phase three from 2019 onwards. During phase 1, Kashmir is totally depoliticised and shown as some pornotropic landscape 1/4

SHAMEFUL. At a seminar at the University of Hyderabad, author Neerja Madhav called homosexuality "unnatural" and a "mental illness," and trans people "hormonally disbalanced." When we protested, she refused to apologize and continued her bigoted ramble. She ran away afterwards.

Tribes continue to lose land to conservation parks and large infrastructure projects. Flood-related displacements are rampant. Displaced tribes also find themselves struggling for resettlement or being brutally evicted from their homesteads. Meanwhile, tribal organisations continue to fight for the proper implementation of land regulation acts and rights of forest dwellers, and other constitutional protections such as the Sixth Schedule.

And even the issue of access to government jobs is not to be resolved by the reclassification.

@Dig_raw21 Stop lying. Mainland Indian settlers called the indigenous Karbis “Chinese” and told them to “go back to China.” The Karbis have every right to defend their constitutionally protected Sixth Schedule land. Period.

@TheAshokSinghal Shame on you, Ashok Singhal. What kind of a pathetic public figure glorifies a massacre and that too while serving as a cabinet minister? It’s disgraceful that someone with such dehumanising views represents my home state. Ashamed that an outsider like you holds office here. Yuck

[أنس الشريف Anas Al-Sharif @AnasAlSharif0]

This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings.

Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half.

I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls.

I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed.

I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission.

I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards.

I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith.

I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting.

O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it.

Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance.

Assamese ethno-nationalists have reduced Rabha to a token, sanitised, stripped of context, a statue fit only for garlanding. There is no real engagement with who he was. No political discourse. No confrontation with his beliefs. Only selective, convenient symbolism.

[Manoranjan Pegu @manoranjanpegu]

The Icon making of Bishnu Rabha is a well crafted exercise. Jatiyobadi organisations paid no attention to him when alive. They now recast him as a nationalist, consciously avoid talking about his revolutionary ideology, and use the convenient bits to further their narrative.

[Manoranjan Pegu @manoranjanpegu]

They will keep calling the Tribals ‘Khilonjiya’ and offer their lands to industrialists. And jatiyobadi organisations will shout-the threat is from ‘immigrants’. Quite a game.

Historically,land laws have been altered to facilitate tribal land grab https://t.co/pEWmmKQF6O

Twitter is a funny place, yesterday I witnessed north Indians teaching Assamese what Bihu actually is.

@revanth_anumula @INCTelangana Stealing student land, destroying forests, and unleashing police on those who resist—this is your legacy. You don’t serve the people, you serve destruction. But we won’t back down.

@RahulGandhi @priyankagandhi The land where students learn, think, and grow is being taken away under your watch. If you truly stand with the youth, speak up before it’s too late.

@RahulGandhi @priyankagandhi Your party is snatching land from students and handing it over for destruction. Is this how you stand with the youth?

@INCTelangana don’t sell what’s not yours to give, this land’s our future, where we will live. Stop the destruction, stop the greed. Let the students’ voices be what you heed.

@INCTelangana talks big about change, but when it’s time to stand up for the environment, they’re busy selling land to corporates. No room for students or nature—only profit.

@INCTelangana is selling off green spaces for corporate gain. Fake promises and student-hating policies—this is what they’re really about.

@revanth_anumula, come visit the land you’re selling. You’ll see the biodiversity, the animals, and the ecosystems you’re about to destroy—all for a few corporate bucks.
