The India Story that International Media doesn't want to talk about.

Content @aravind 👍

[JM US @JMUSPatriot]

India uses its 4th most powerful military in the world to help countries facing a crisis, even if they are 9000 miles away, instead of attacking them.

India set up a makeshift hospital during the Turkey earthquakes too, treating thousands of people as its military helped Turkish authorities clear out the rubble.

During the Russia-Ukraine war, India evacuated its own citizens along with stranded citizens of other countries, including Pakistani citizens.

India also led the medical and rebuilding efforts (by sending financial aid) during the Nepal earthquakes in April 2015. India sent the highest number of troops to the region and led the operations for months - free of cost for Nepal.

Even during the fall of Yemen in 2015, India evacuated its own citizens as well as American and European citizens, who were stranded there and expecting no help from their own military.

All this was FREE OF COST. India didn't send a bill to any of these countries.

We owe India gratitude, instead of the racist treatment it gets on social media.

On the occasion of Yoga Day here is our yearly reminder: Yoga is Hindu.
Chanting christian hymns or re-naming the asanas as bird dog pose or downward dog or dead bug will not make Dandayamana Bharmanasana or Adho Mukha Svanasana or Stambhasana, Christian yoga or Jesus yoga!

[Arshia Malik @arshiaunis]

As an Indian woman from Muslim heritage, I write this rebuttal with the clarity and directness that comes from living the reality @Ilhan only tweets about from afar. Ilhan Omar’s claim that India has reached the “eighth stage of genocide” against Muslims is not analysis. It is reckless, fact-free propaganda that insults every one of us who actually live here, work here, raise families here, and exercise our rights every single day.

If there were even the beginning of genocide, our population would not have exploded. In 1951, Muslims were about 9.8% of India. By 2011, we were 14.2%. Today we are estimated around 14.5–15%, heading toward 18% by 2050 according to Pew projections. From roughly 35 million in 1951 to over 200 million now. Absolute numbers have multiplied nearly six-fold while the country’s overall population grew far slower in percentage terms. Genocide does not produce the world’s largest Muslim-minority population that keeps growing faster than the national average for decades. It produces mass graves and fleeing refugees. We have neither.

We vote in every election in the world’s largest democracy. We contest seats, win them, become MPs, ministers, judges, IAS officers, doctors, engineers, and business leaders. Three Presidents of India have been Muslim. We serve in the armed forces and police. We own businesses, run hospitals, produce films, and dominate segments of entertainment and sports. This is not the signature of a community facing extermination.

We are thriving and prospering — with real data and real lives. Yes, like every large community, we have internal challenges — lower average literacy and educational enrollment in some metrics, pockets of poverty, and the need for better skilling. But the narrative of uniform victimhood is a lie told by people who have never walked through a Muslim-dominated area in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Lucknow, or Kerala and seen the middle class, the professionals, the entrepreneurs, and the young women studying medicine and engineering.

Prominent Indian Muslims — from business (Wipro’s Azim Premji built one of India’s largest companies), to cinema (generations of stars and directors), to sports, academia, and medicine — show what is possible when talent meets opportunity in a free society. Millions of ordinary Muslim families have moved from villages to cities, from informal work to formal jobs, from one generation of limited schooling to the next pursuing professional degrees. That is prosperity in motion, not persecution.

We enjoy specific rights and accommodations that Hindus as a group do not. This is the part Omar and her echo chamber never mention. Indian Muslims operate under a parallel personal law system for marriage, divorce, inheritance, and maintenance rooted in Sharia. Hindus do not.
After independence, Hindu personal law was comprehensively reformed and codified into a uniform framework (Hindu Marriage Act, Hindu Succession Act, etc.). Muslims retained the right to follow their own religious laws — including provisions for polygamy (up to four wives) and differential inheritance rules that the Hindu majority surrendered decades ago.

We also have constitutional minority protections under Articles 29 and 30 that allow us to establish and administer our own educational institutions with significant autonomy — rights the Hindu majority does not claim as a group because it is not classified as a minority. The Waqf Act gives Muslim institutions unique control over vast religious and charitable properties in a manner unparalleled for any other community.
In short: the Indian state has gone out of its way, through personal laws and minority safeguards, to preserve and accommodate Muslim religious and cultural identity in ways it has not extended equivalently to the Hindu majority. These are not “equal rights” in every narrow sense — they are deliberate accommodations that give us more space to live according to our traditions than the majority community receives under the same Constitution.

As a woman from Muslim heritage in India, I have the full protection of the Indian Constitution plus the framework of personal law. The criminalization of instant triple talaq in 2019 removed a specific vulnerability that existed under uncodified practice. I can study, work, vote, travel, criticize the government, wear what I choose (or not), and practice my faith openly — all while living in a country where my community’s population share has steadily risen for 75 years.

@Ilhan Omar’s “eighth stage of genocide” rhetoric is not solidarity. It is the lazy export of American culture-war talking points onto a country and a people she does not understand. It erases the agency of 200+ million Indian Muslims who are neither cowering nor waiting for rescue from Washington. It cheapens the word “genocide” while real atrocities happen elsewhere.
Stop peddling foreign fantasies about our lives. We are here. We are visible. We are voting. We are building. And we reject your narrative with the facts of our own existence. That is the view from inside — not from a podium in the United States.

Kumar Vishwas on Dhurandhar 2: hits the nail on the head... fantastic reply.

Wow! Perhaps one of the best tributes to Aditya Dhar for making Dhurandhar. In just a few words, Kumar Vishwas hits the bullseye

The interviewer looks visibly uncomfortable and must be cursing his luck for asking the right question to the wrong person. Enjoyed this conversation 😘😍👊🏼

आदिनाथ मंदिर, जिसे आज 'आदिना मस्जिद' कहा जाता है, वहाँ आज भी देवी-देवताओं की मूर्तियाँ एवं मंदिर स्थापत्य के अवशेष स्पष्ट रूप से दिखाई देते हैं, तो क्या बहुसंख्यक समाज को अपनी आस्था, अस्मिता और सम्मान के साथ जीने का अधिकार नहीं है?

Pooja at Bhojshala. Har har Mahadev.

[Anand Ranganathan @ARanganathan72]

Based purely on scientific evidence, the Madhya Pradesh High Court has confirmed that a magnificent temple once stood where a mosque does now at Bhojshala.

Not just 4 or 40 or 40,000 - every demolished temple must be legally reclaimed. We owe this to our civilisation. My views:

Supreme court when Nupur Sharma repeats what is written in Islamic scriptures: You have ignited India. You possess a loose tongue. Power has gone to your head. You should apologise.

Supreme court when Udhayanidhi Stalin repeats his call to eradicate Sanatana Dharma: Silence.

Medha Patkar led the Narmada Bachao Andolan (NBA), which began in the 1980s.

The movement opposed Sardar Sarovar Dam. The movement lasted for more than 30 years.

Narmada Bachao Andolan was included in school textbooks and Medha Patkar was hailed as a revolutionary.

However, the Sardar Sarovar Dam has provided benefits to millions of people in Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Maharashtra.

It not only supplies drinking water to several villages and drought-prone areas but also supports irrigation for millions of hectares of farmland and has boosted farmers' incomes. It also supports regional power needs.

Now, people are witnessing that the Narmada Bachao Andolan they studied in school was not an environmental revolution but an anti development campaign which played with their minds. She misled Indians for more than 30 years.

Zubair Ansari, the Mumbai terrorist, singled out Hindus unable to recite the Kalma. This was the exact requirement enforced by the Pahalgam terrorists. This was the same litmus test used by the 26/11 terrorists. But Terrorism has no religion.

My views:

[Anand Ranganathan @ARanganathan72]

The same journalists who passionately backed unsubstantiated Me Too claims are today victim shaming brave Hindu women who have suffered rape and forced conversion.

How long before being a Hindu victim is considered a crime in itself.

[Anand Ranganathan @ARanganathan72]

The Kerala Story is going to be the India Story if we continue to bury our head in the sand. The TCS horror proves Love Jihad is no longer limited to lone-wolf attacks but has evolved into carefully orchestrated grooming operations run by educated professionals.

Women cannot be considered untouchable for three days in a month. - Supreme Court on Sabarimala.

Here, I explain why such slanderous misreadings are not only hurtful to the Hindus, they fit a pattern - of the court respecting all religions but having the guts to mock only one:

[Shiv Aroor @ShivAroor]

✅ Brainless low-grade youth.
✅ Rampant unemployment.
✅ Islamist Govt leadership.
✅ U.S. interest in radicalised hub.
✅ Structureless puppet system
✅ Communal mobs part of DNA
✅ Needs India to ‘focus’ hate.

Bangladesh is a proto-terrorist state.

[Ofer Binshtok - Kafir - עופר בינשטוק @Ofer_binshtok]

This is a fact: Muslims are slaughtering Hindus in Bangladesh and the world is silent. They are being butchered one by one and sometimes in small groups, their women and girls are being abducted, raped, and forcibly converted to Islam.

[Faraz Pervaiz @FarazPervaiz3]

Islam is the world's largest terrorist organization.
