Remembered this old video

Liberals laughing and joking about poll violence in Bengal

No ... bombs and deaths are not funny

Not at all funny.

For too long, the pain of Bengal has been ignored by intellectuals.

मैंने महुआ जी के इस ट्वीट पर गहन चिंतन किया । पिनाकी मिश्रा जी मेरे पुराने दोस्त हैं इसलिए महुआ मोइत्रा जी मेरी अब भाभी हैं,बंगाल में @AITCofficial के चुनाव हारने के बाद मैंने बांग्लादेश के नव नियुक्त राजदूत @DinTri जी से आग्रह किया है कि महुआ भाभी के लिए ढाका में जमदानी साडी का शोरूम या साड़ी का बुनकर केंद्र खुलवा दें ।किसी को भी किसी से पूछने की आवश्यकता नहीं पड़ेगी,सीधे महुआ जी के दुकान से साड़ी मिलेगी

Today an FIR was filed in Assam against TMC goon and serial offender Nilanjan Das.

He will be brought to Assam and face legal action. Another FIR has also been filed in Serampore, in his local area.

Next will be Riju Dutta and Garga Chatterjee. No one will be spared!

[Alok Bhatt @alok_bhatt]

I consider myself a long-term critic of @ShekharGupta because of the huge admiration I have for him. My admiration for Shekhar comes from my firm belief that there is no one as cunning and as clever as SG.

Truth be told, Shekhar has a legendary ability to say things he wants to say while hiding the reality, and yet make his readers believe his writing is the only gospel truth. That is what makes him most dangerous. He is the original propagandist who sits perfectly at the intersection of old style journalism and new age media.

Infact, there is no better proof of that last assertion than his ability to bring dead leaders and others alive at will, but only after they are gone, to prove his point or build context. Today, it was the turn of late Balbir Punj. One of the finest our side has produced.

Coming back to the quoted tweet and article; I'm forced to tweet my rejoinder after breaking my personal resolve to not counter folks anymore. Such effort entails writing long tweets or threads; something newbies and self-certified commentators do all day, often with AI doing the heavy lifting. It was a conscious choice to stay away from that race.

But SG's latest cunning piece needs to be countered. He is trying to create a dangerous narrative that the configuration of “Muslims as only opposition” is a Modi-Shah creation, and how cure is "a new Hindu-led coalition" that builds a winning vote share with Hindus while protecting Muslims. And there I know he has sniffed that opening in GC as a victim narrative that we are seeing on SM these days.

Dare I claim that both claims of Shekhar wrong; and SG, of all people, knows to very well that they are wrong. Precisely why I won’t see a reply from him as he replied to @kushal_mehra.

Let me say it with complete responsibly that much before Bengal, there was someone who not only invented but also mastered the art of leveraging captive bloc machine by mobilising Muslims as one frightened तुकड़ी, divide Hindus on caste, sit at the centre as the only protector…. Yes that theory is NOT invented by PM @narendramodi and HM @AmitShah . There are merely countering it the way it shud be.

Yes that captive block machine theory was built by Nehru (to leverage Gandhi Vadh) escalated by Indira, calcified by Rajiv, and is now in its terminal phase under a Congress that can no longer maintain it.
If you don’t take my word, don’t but do take Lohia's.

All references im using today have been tweeted by me in the past.

On 3rd Oct 1963, in one of his speeches (covered in Hindu Banam Hindu, Hindu aur Musalman) delivered at Hyderabad speech, Lohia famously blamed Muslims and Nehru for vitiating electoral scene.

His words - “मुसलमान जैसी चीज नहीं रहनी चाहिए राजनीति में। टूट जाना चाहिए।". He called this
एक तुकड़ी politics undemocratic. Yes , he called it so Sixty-three years ago & Lohia was a Socialist; not a Sanghi. Yes same Lohia who many of SGs heroes swear by and whose name they do their politics or earned their riches.

But not just Lohia, even Ambedkar, in his 1951, while resigning from Nehru's Cabinet, said same thing on the floor of Parliament when he said: “The PM's whole time and attention is devoted to the protection of the Muslims… are SCs, STs and Indian Christians not in need of protection?"

Yes this was the Constitution's architect in Parliament.

Lohia did not stop at diagnosis but built the cure also when he joined hands with DDU for 4 Lok Sabha bypolls. Later Samyukta Vidhayak Dal govt in 9 states resulted from that as they worked to break the Congress monopoly that lived off the Hindu-Muslim binary.

SG knows all this as be has read all this but he won’t mention it because the moment Lohia, Ambedkar and SVD enter the conversation, his "new Hindu-led coalition" prescription stops looking like wisdom and starts looking like what it is : a request to revive the captive bloc machine under new management!

Sorry bro, not happening !

I am going to make it one my life’s mission to document the crimes of @MamataOfficial and her evil regime. She should never come back to power. TMC should never come back to power. Nowhere near power.

@KanchanGupta @MamataOfficial @abhishekaitc Pishi boleche oke, sokto hote hobe toh - press conference e aye, nahole o nischoi aasto na. Dekhei bojha jache kende phelbe berolei

[Joydeep Burman@sp @BurmanJoydeep]

@aratrika_g08 @abhishekaitc People like you with clear Conflict of interest ( clear just by looking at your profile) parading as normal middle class are destroying the state.

[Joydeep Burman@sp @BurmanJoydeep]

@BoseBhakt @abhishekaitc This guy is the worst of the lot, far worse than Kejriwal and others. For long he has spoken incendiary speeches with no action against him when it would be appropriate - speaking in a very unbiased manner
Only person who comes close is Udhyanidhi stalin

[Joydeep Burman@sp @BurmanJoydeep]

@PrabhatYadav76 @abhishekaitc He has spoken and talked too much over the years. Don't know why these haven't been enough grounds for him to be arrested

[Joydeep Burman@sp @BurmanJoydeep]

@AjayKumarKhemka @abhishekaitc Just because this Abhishek Banerjee has claimed this , you have believed it without even waiting to verify who are responsible.

[Joydeep Burman@sp @BurmanJoydeep]

@akbarsekhaitc @abhishekaitc @AmitShah @narendramodi @AITCofficial Justice is coming at you. U being a AITC member and writing this, don't have basic courtesy of understanding to avoid Conflict of Interest speaks volumes about yourself as well as your party

@Hurricanrana_27 The real problem is the kkr coach , Abhishek Nayar.
He doesn't have the necessary credentials.

@parthpunter You're a master of twisting facts and parroting them -evident from your including the word "faith" in your sentence.

@Hwanshuu @MikeKeegan_DM I think he was the same in the 1st season, but after the 2 incidents with cr7 & sancho, it seemed to dent his hold on the squad, and he wasn't making bold decisions like he made earlier
